Financial Achievement Services to Host Christmas Card Drive
Greenville, Ohio - The team at Financial Achievement Services invites
the community to participate in their Christmas Card Drive for
residents at the Brethren Retirement Community. The card drive aims to
bring holiday cheer to the residents who have faced a uniquely
challenging and isolating year.
FAS recognizes that many older adults have been hit especially hard by
the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting restrictions, especially those
in care facilities. Even if they have family in the area, they may not
be able to enjoy their company during the holiday season due to visitor
restrictions or health concerns. The FAS team hopes that collecting
Christmas cards for the residents is a way to provide a small
connection and let them know people are thinking of them.
“We are very passionate about community reinvestment at FAS, and our
team supports the missions of numerous local non-profits, including the
Brethren Retirement Community” said Matt Arnold, President of Financial
Achievement Services. “We are very happy to be partnering with the BRC
to help bring a little bit of Christmas joy to the residents who are
facing loneliness due to the pandemic.”
Christmas cards for the card drive may be handmade or store bought, and
should be addressed generically (e.g., Dear BRC Resident). Creating
handmade cards is a great craft activity for parents to do with kids,
however, please do not use loose glitter or glitter on glue. Pre-mixed
“glitter glue” is acceptable. Please do not enclose or attach candy to
the cards. Cards can be turned in to the FAS office at 5116 Children’s
Home Bradford Rd, Greenville, OH 45331. The office is open 8:30 am –
5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. There will also be a special mailbox at
the entrance for after-hours drop-offs.
Anyone wishing to participate should turn in their cards to the FAS
office by Monday, December 21st. The cards will then be delivered to
the Brethren Retirement Community and distributed to residents by the
BRC staff.
Financial Achievement Services President Matt Arnold has been a member
of the BRC Board of Directors since 2005, and the FAS team supports the
mission of this community organization through their annual charity
gala each year. Financial Achievement Services, Inc. is committed to
being a leading independent financial services firm driven by a team of
caring professionals partnering with clients to navigate life’s
experiences. Learn more about Financial Achievement Services’ mission,
