Van Horn Employee’s Give Back to Salvation Army

December 8th, 2016 by

It’s that time of year again. The time to remember to love thy neighbor, promote peace on earth, and give back in your communities. Van Horn wanted to give back this year and partnered with the Salvation Army to do so.

The first weekend in December Van Horn employee’s, including Teresa Van Horn, reached out to the community by committing their time to bell ring at the Plymouth Walmart.

From 8:00 to Noon, Van Horn employee’s greeted Saturday morning shoppers with cheery songs and thank you’s in order to raise money for the Salvation Army. Van Horn pledged to match all donations that were donated during the time of the Van Horn bell ringers.

We are still waiting on the total amount, but there will be updates to follow.

For the past month, Van Horn locations have had little Christmas tree’s displayed with families names and gifts in each store. Each tree represents two families from the community that the Salvation Army has selected to help out this holiday season.

Van Horn Employee’s volunteered to take a tag or more and buy each gift on the tag. We had an overwhelming response from our employees. Here are the results from our Plymouth Salvation Army Adopt-a-Family.

The gifts will be distributed by the Salvation Army to each family anonymously this weekend.

Van Horn is proud to support the Salvation Army this Christmas. After all, Dr. Suess said it best with his line “Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought, doesn’t come from a store.”

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us to all of you!
