THE SALVATION ARMY OF HANNIBAL ANNOUNCES CONCLUSION OF THE 2023 TREE OF LIGHTS CHRISTMAS
The Hannibal Salvation Army Christmas Campaign Chairs, Eddie and Tracy Lennox, have announced the completion of a successful 2023 Christmas Campaign. The Hannibal campaign goal of $122,000 was exceeded, with a total raised of $125,541.
The Tree of Lights Christmas Campaign is The Salvation Army’s major fundraising effort each year. Money raised during the campaign helps provide funding programs and services that assist individuals and families in Hannibal and the surrounding Northeast Missouri communities daily throughout the year and Christmas assistance.
The need for assistance to the people of the Hannibal area community is a constant, which The Salvation Army takes very seriously, especially during this campaign.
This holiday season, The Salvation Army of Hannibal provided 788 food boxes containing a full Christmas meal to families and senior adults in Marion, Ralls, Lewis, Monroe, Shelby, and Pike counties. In conjunction with Toys for Tots of Northeast Missouri, toys were distributed to 1,519 children.
The Salvation Army appreciates the many individuals, groups, organizations, and businesses supporting our effort by donating food, toys, time, and money to make the 2023 Christmas Campaign successful.
