A local organization is asking for help to make this holiday season a little brighter for nursing home patients.
St. Barnabas Charities will light up the largest living Christmas Tree east of the Mississippi with more than 15,000 multi-colored lights at the St. Barnabas Nursing Home in Gibsonia.
Donations in honor or memory of a loved one are being accepted and will benefit the Free Care Fund. Tributes will be inscribed in a book and displayed in the St. Barnabas Nursing Home Chapel.
Visit the St. Barnabas Health System website under the charities heading for more information.
