“CHRISTMAS IN OUR HEARTS”
CHRISTMAS PRODUCTION REACHES OUT TO SENIOR
CITIZENS IN NEBRASKA AND IOWA
OMAHA, NE –16TH ANNUAL CONCERT, “CHRISTMAS IN OUR HEARTS,” TO BE
PRESENTED BY COMMUNITY 360° FOR NEBRASKA AND IOWA SENIOR
CITIZENS, SHOW TO FEATURE SOME OF OMAHA’S BEST MUSICIANS AND
SINGERS.
“‘Christmas in Our Hearts’ is an annual holiday celebration that we host on behalf of the
elderly,” Paul Falkowski, founder and executive director of Community 360° said. “We bring in
some 300 residents from 25 senior living facilities from all around the metro area and give them a
Christmas party to remember. For some of these folks, it’s the only Christmas celebration they’ll
have, so we do everything we can to make it extra special.”
The production of music is presented by artists who are professional musicians who
frequently volunteer their talents to the elderly throughout the year. An additional 100 volunteers
will be on hand to make this event a success by safely loading and unloading busses, ushering,
and serving refreshments.
The venue for this year’s event is the Kroc Center, 2825 Y Street, Omaha, Nebraska. The
concert begins at 1:30 P.M. The event is free and open to the public. We are especially grateful
to this year’s sponsors: Vetter Health Services, Good Samaritan Society, and Pinnacle Bank.
Community 360° is an Omaha-based non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization that throughout
the year, recruits, trains and places skilled volunteers in nursing homes and assisted living
facilities.
