CANTON, Ohio, Jan. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Liberty HealthShare and its Canton employees helped spread Christmas cheer to brighten the holidays for the less fortunate.

The ministry, which facilitates healthsharing for nearly 90,000 members, arranged donations for Canton's Patrick Elementary School and Refuge of Hope Ministries, as well as Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child.

"Our ministry is based on the biblical principle of supporting one another in times of need," said Pastor Wes Humble, executive director of ministry and community relations. "While we do that on a daily basis with our members' healthcare needs, we apply the same principle to those in our own communities who are in need of food, clothing and other essentials for life."

Called "Partnering with Patrick," Liberty HealthShare's employees donated clothing items including hats, gloves, scarves, socks, underwear, sweatshirts and leggings for students in grades K-6 at the school. Pastor Humble is planning additional outreach activities with the school.

The ministry donated numerous shirts and a large quantity of prepared foods to the Refuge of Hope, which provides shelter, meals, clothing and essential healthcare services to those who ace poverty and homelessness in Canton.

The donation to Samaritan's Purse reaches outside of the Canton community as it provides the shoeboxes filled with toys, school supplies and hygiene items for children in more than 170 countries and territories around the world.
