Holiday Giving

The gift of time could be the best gift of all this holiday season

 

For many, the holiday season is a time for celebration and fun with loved ones. But for others in Chippewa, the season can be one of the loneliest times of the year. 

 

At Mower Insurance, we know how precious the gift of time can mean to someone in Chippewa Falls during the holidays. Here are a few ways you and your family can share the spirit of the holidays with others.

Share a holiday dinner with local heroes. Many firefighters, medical specialists and law enforcement professionals spend their holidays on the job in Chippewa Falls. Bring a holiday dinner or treats to your local hospital, fire station or police station, and share the gift of thanks with local heroes who protect and serve our community every day.

Offer comfort to those in need. Connect with local organizations in Western Wisconsin that help to feed the hungry or provide warmth and shelter for those out in the cold. If you’re not sure where to start, spend just a little time researching the websites of our local volunteer organizations like Feed My People or Meals on Wheels.  Find out how and when you can help - and make it a family affair!

Make some new friends at our local retirement homes. While many of our senior citizens are included in holiday celebrations with family and friends, some spend the season without anyone. Call your local retirement home and check into the volunteer opportunities they offer for helping with crafts, special events, playing cards or just spending time visiting.

At Mower Insurance Agency, we know that giving the gift of time is sometimes the best gift of all. That’s why we make the time each year to donate to our local food shelves at First Presbyterian.  We hope you find time to share your time this holiday season - you’ll be glad you did!
