The Washington Trust Co. will hold its seventh annual “PB Xpress,” a bank-wide drive to collect jars of peanut butter for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank at its 16 branches throughout the month of March.
Last year’s drive brought in a record 11 tons; this year’s goal is 12 tons. Since the program began, 32 tons of peanut butter has been collected.
More than 30 schools statewide will also hold peanut butter drives, giving students the opportunity to help those in need and learn about the importance of serving their community.
