In a friendly competition, the 100 or so employees of First Savings Bank Northwest collected 2,819 pounds of food for the Salvation Army Renton Rotary Food Bank.

And monetary donations totaled $1,075.

The bank divided its staff into four teams, setting the stage for collecting the food items and supplies suggested by the Salvation Army.

The result surpassed the amount of food collected in 2010 (2,186 pounds) and in 2011 (916 pounds).

The winning team, The Hunger Busters, will have “Jeans Day Friday” for all of December.
