MUNCIE, IN —Meridian Health Services invites the community to Holidays at Gresham, a free drive-thru light exhibit with over one million lights on display brought to you by Meridian Health Services and presenting sponsor American Electric Power Foundation. Attendees will enjoy driving through the many lighted exhibits including Candyland, seeing Mr. and Mrs. Claus, hearing the sounds of Christmas music, and feeling the holiday season in the air.
Holidays at Gresham will be open every weekend in December through Christmas Day from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Suzanne Gresham Center located at 3620 W. White River Blvd., Muncie, IN 47304. A special sneak peek of the spectacular light exhibit will be held on Giving Tuesday, November 28, from 6 to 9 p.m.
Holidays at Gresham is Meridian Health Services’ annual holiday fundraising event. This year, donations made at Holidays at Gresham and online will benefit Meridian’s Child Advocacy Center (CAC), which is located at the Suzanne Gresham Center and works with children who have experienced trauma from abuse and other harmful situations. Since its inception, the CAC has served over 2,000 children. A donation of just $25 will provide a child with a Hope and Healing Comfort Kit, which will include a blanket, stuffed animal, and other age-appropriate activity items to help the healing begin.
Those who make a donation at the Holidays at Gresham sneak peek and every weekend in December through Christmas, will be entered to win a $100 gift card provided by Meijer. Drawings are held on Giving Tuesday and each weekend of the event. Visit www.Holidays.MeridianHS.org to learn more and donate.
