Ozarks Healthcare Foundation’s Lights of Life Program offers Opportunity to Honor Loved Ones this Holiday Season
The Ozarks Healthcare Foundation invites the community to participate in this year’s Lights of Life program, a cherished tradition that allows friends and families to honor loved ones with a glowing tribute during the holiday season. For a $10 donation, community members can sponsor a light on Ozarks Healthcare’s Christmas tree, which will be displayed in the lobby of the main entrance. The annual tree lighting ceremony will take place on Monday, Dec. 9 at 5:30 p.m.
This special evening will include a joyful celebration, featuring a presentation honoring those remembered or celebrated with lights to capture the festive spirit. The tree, along with a list of names of those honored, will remain on display throughout the holiday season, allowing for moments of reflection and remembrance.
“The Lights of Life program gives our community a beautiful way to remember and celebrate the people who have touched their lives,” Josh Reeves, Vice President of Development at Ozarks Healthcare, said. “Each light shines in tribute to someone special, and the collective glow of these lights represents the warmth and unity of our community.”
To sponsor a light, donations can be made by contacting the Ozarks Healthcare Foundation at 417-853-5200 or by visiting the Foundation Office at #12 Parkway Center in West Plains. You can also purchase online at https://www.ozarkshealthcare.com/support-us/foundation/lights-of-life/.
