MIDLAND, Texas — Several Permian Basin banks have done their parts to help bring some Christmas cheer to forgotten seniors with the APS Giving Tree.
For more than 15 years these banks have teamed up with Adult Protective Services (APS) to give Christmas gifts to a lot of seniors in the community who might've been overlooked. APS has worked to make sure that elderly and disabled adults are free from abuse and neglect.
The Frost Banks in Midland and Odessa along with Western Bank and State National Bank in Big Spring are sponsoring APS Giving Trees during the holidays.
If you're interested in supporting the project, you can stop by any Frost Bank in Midland and Odessa or Western Bank and State National Bank in Big Spring.
