Brookfield, Wis. – North Shore Bank, celebrating its centennial anniversary, today announced the bank is partnering with Children’s Wisconsin to present “Coins for Kids” leading up to the 25^th annual WKLH Miracle Marathon presented by Mars Family Foundation. Beginning April 21 through May 17 at 5pm, the public can stop by any North Shore Bank in southeastern Wisconsin to count coins for free and donate all or a portion of the coins to North Shore Bank’s “Coins for Kids” to support Children’s Wisconsin. The bank is matching all donations up to $2,500 raised.
 
“We’re honored to once again partner with Children’s Wisconsin to offer an easily accessible way for the community to join us in donating to this important cause,” said Sue Doyle, Senior Vice President at North Shore Bank. “Now is the time to do some spring cleaning and bring in your loose change and support Children’s Wisconsin in the process.”

While coin counting is not complimentary for commercial businesses, local businesses can stop in to drop off donations.
