The Hopkins County Health Care Foundation is abuzz with activity as the Annual Snowflake Campaign begins. We invite the community to pay tribute to friends or family members with a gift in their honor or memory. The Foundation will then notify the honorees or designated contact to inform them of the gift.
In addition, we display an intricate snowflake bearing the name of the recognized individual in the main lobby of CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital–Sulphur Springs. By the end of the holiday season, the foyer will twinkle with Christmas tree lights and snowflakes on the windows.
This holiday campaign began as one of the Foundation’s first offerings. Over the years, it became the namesake for many of the Foundation’s activities. Initially, donors sponsored lights on the tree to recognize friends and loved ones. We later altered the lights to be outdoor luminaires displayed in the Gardens at Memorial. A few years ago, snowflakes became the symbol of the Lights of Life campaign.
Children and adults alike are in awe when they first see the towering, ornately festooned Christmas tree with snowflakes adding to the scene. It is a view straight from a Hallmark Christmas movie.
The recommended donation for each person honored is $25 or more. Individual recognition makes a lovely seasonal gift. It is an excellent way to tell someone that someone thought of them during the holiday season and to pay tribute to a deceased friend or loved one.
Donations may be mailed to the Foundation or made online at the Foundation’s webpage. Please include contact information for the donor and the individual to whom you acknowledge. Also, include the name(s) of the individual(s) we need to add to the snowflakes and if the gift is in honor of or memory of the person.
You can find the Foundation’s webpage by searching for the Hopkins County Health Care Foundation or call the office at 903-438-4799. The Hopkins County Health Care Foundation is an IRS 501 (c) 3 not-for-profit organization.
A medida que comienza la Campaña Anual de Copos de Nieve, la Fundación de Atención Médica del Condado de Hopkins está llena de actividad. Invitamos a la comunidad a rendir homenaje a amigos o familiares con un regalo en su honor o memoria. Luego, la Fundación notificará a los homenajeados o al contacto designado para informarles del regalo.
Además, exhibimos un intrincado copo de nieve con el nombre de la persona reconocida en el vestíbulo principal del Hospital CHRISTUS Mother Frances-Sulphur Springs. Al final de la temporada navideña, el vestíbulo brillará con las luces del árbol de Navidad y los copos de nieve en las ventanas.
Esta campaña navideña comenzó como una de las primeras ofertas de la Fundación. Con el paso de los años, se convirtió en el homónimo de muchas de las actividades de la Fundación. Inicialmente, los donantes patrocinaron luces en el árbol para reconocer a amigos y seres queridos. Más tarde modificamos las luces para que fueran luminarias al aire libre que se exhiben en los Jardines del Memorial. Hace unos años, los copos de nieve se convirtieron en el símbolo de la campaña Luces de la Vida.
Tanto los niños como los adultos se asombran cuando ven por primera vez el imponente árbol de Navidad adornado con copos de nieve que se suman a la escena. Es una vista sacada directamente de una película navideña de Hallmark.
La donación recomendada para cada persona homenajeada es de $25 o más. El reconocimiento individual es un hermoso regalo de temporada. Es una excelente manera de decirle a alguien que alguien pensó en él durante la temporada navideña y para rendir homenaje a un amigo o ser querido fallecido.
Las donaciones pueden enviarse por correo a la Fundación o hacerse en línea en la página web de la Fundación. Incluya la información de contacto del donante y de la persona a la que reconoce. Además, incluya el nombre (s) de la (s) persona (s) que necesitamos agregar a los copos de nieve y si el regalo es en honor o memoria de la persona.
Puede encontrar la página web de la Fundación buscando la Fundación de Atención Médica del Condado de Hopkins o llamando a la oficina al 903-438-4799. La Fundación de Atención Médica del Condado de Hopkins es una organización sin fines de lucro 501 (c) 3 del IRS.
The United Way of Lamar County (UWLC) launched its Annual Heater Drive this week. You can drop off your donations of new space heaters at the UWLC office at 2340 Lamar Avenue in Paris or any Lamar National Bank location.
UWLC Executive Director Jenny Wilson explains, “As the temperatures drop, we get a lot of calls for space heaters. Many would be surprised to learn that many in our community do not have central heat. We give out heaters to those in need as we receive donations of new heaters. We want to do all we can to help those in need, especially when the temperatures drop below freezing.”
For more information, call the UWLC office at 903-784-6642.
United Way del Condado de Lamar (UWLC, por sus siglas en inglés) lanzó su Campaña Anual de Calentadores esta semana. Puede dejar sus donaciones de calentadores nuevos en la oficina de UWLC en 2340 Lamar Avenue en París o en cualquier ubicación de Lamar National Bank.
La directora ejecutiva de UWLC, Jenny Wilson, explica: “A medida que bajan las temperaturas, recibimos muchas llamadas de calentadores de espacio. Muchos se sorprenderían al saber que muchos en nuestra comunidad no tienen calefacción central. Entregamos calentadores a los necesitados a medida que recibimos donaciones de calentadores nuevos. Queremos hacer todo lo posible para ayudar a los necesitados, especialmente cuando las temperaturas caen por debajo del punto de congelación”.
