Elm Employees Help Make Christmas Bright!

In a typical year, The Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program puts new clothes and toys under the tree for 1 million children who usually go without Christmas gifts.

Recognizing that every child deserves to feel the joy of Christmas, Elm employees participated in the Angel Tree Program, purchasing gifts for 27 area children! So many lives are deeply impacted by this gesture of love and hope—both the receivers and the givers. Thank you to all the generous shoppers who took the time during this busy season to dig into their pockets to help make Christmas bright for these local kiddos!
