Your Generosity Made the 2025 Christmas Elves Program a Success!
‘Tis the season for Liberty’s annual Christmas Elves program, and this year your generosity shone bright!
Each year, Liberty partners with local agencies to help identify residents ages 65 and older who will be spending the holidays alone. Participants provide information about themselves and what they’d like for Christmas. Liberty then invites its employees and the public to help fulfill the holiday wish lists.
This year we partnered with Mercy Village, Messenger Towers, The Independent Living Center (all in Joplin); Southwest City Senior Center, Citizens Memorial Healthcare Facility (Bolivar, Missouri), Medicalodges Columbus (Kansas), and Quaker Hill Assisted Living (Baxter Springs, Kansas).
With the support of our employees and amazing customers, 100 local seniors will receive Christmas gifts. Thank you to all those who helped make the season a little brighter for our friends and neighbors!
