Share the Joy 2006
Once again, Liberty’s annual holiday giving campaign “Share the Joy” was a great success. Liberty employees donated $6,601 and the company matched that amount. This year’s project included buying gifts for a single mother of three children, referred by the Salvation Army, and over 30 children from the Children’s Home of Winston-Salem. Due to this generosity, we were able to buy toys for the kids and other items for their homes like sheets, towels, ironing boards, dishes, vacuum cleaners, sports items for the common areas, refurbished computers, gift cards for each of the kids, and more.
