(12/23/2013)   McLeod Loris Seacoast employees celebrated Christmas a little early this year by granting Angel Tree wishes for the residents of Loris Extended Care Center.  Each resident received gifts donated by McLeod Loris Seacoast administration and staff during a Christmas celebration Friday, December 20.

Angel Trees were located in the cafeterias at McLeod Loris, McLeod Seacoast and Loris Extended Care Center. Employees were able to select an angel from the trees, do some shopping and deliver new, unwrapped items to the Human Resources offices at McLeod Loris and McLeod Seacoast. Each angel contained a gift item request from a resident. Employees gathered to gift wrap each gift and again to distribute them.

Anyone interested in learning more about ways to contribute to the residents of Loris Extended Care Center can contact the McLeod Health Foundation office at (843) 390-8215.
