Mid-Plains United Way
North Platte, NE - Mid-Plains United Way is excited to announce its upcoming gift-wrapping event, presented by Lashley Land Residential by Tami Timmerman-Lashley. The event will be held at Walmart Supercenter in North Platte from December 8 to December 10, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
"We are thrilled to partner with Lashley Land Residential by Tami Timmerman Lashley for this event," said Mid-Plains United Way Executive Director, Haven Smith. "Thanks to her generosity, the entire $5 per present directly funds our partner agencies and makes a positive impact in our community."
The event is open to everyone who wants to get their gifts wrapped for a good cause. All proceeds from the event will benefit Mid-Plains United Way, which is committed to making a difference in the communities it serves. Funds raised allow Mid-Plains United Way to continue supporting programs that provide food and shelter to those who are struggling, help children and youth succeed in school, and ensure that our seniors are cared for and connected with their communities.
The booth will be located in front of the checkout on the north side of Walmart. Customers can choose from a variety of wrapping paper and ribbons to make their gifts look special.
"We encourage everyone to stop by the booth and take advantage of this service," said Tami Timmerman-Lashley. "You can do your extra shopping while you wait and you'll also be supporting a great cause."
