Easter Seals slashing ornament prices

The Etowah County chapter of Easter Seals has several of its ornaments for half price.
For 15 years, the organization has sold commemorative ornaments to raise money for the chapter. Each ornament was designed by local artists and depicts an area landmark.
For just $5, you can have a piece of local history and also help someone in need.
“All of the proceeds from the ornaments stay in Etowah County and are used here locally,” said Ruby McCombs, director of the Etowah County chapter of Easter Seals.
“We have four missions. We buy prescription drugs for people who don’t have insurance and can’t afford to buy them. We help with transportation to and from clinics. We loan people durable medical equipment to be used at home. Also, we try to provide 15 children with a trip to Camp ASCCA (Alabama’s Special Camp for Children and Adults) every year.” read more
