Gifts Etc. has expanded as it operates out of the new location at Baptist Hospital.

In the area once known as the Emergency Room waiting lounge, the store has set a spectacular display of Christmas items for the annual Open House to be held from 7 a.m. – 5 p.m. on Thursday and Friday.

Offering several holiday decorations along with gift and boutique items, the Women’s Service League of Orange is excited to show off the latest merchandise.

The non profit organization raises funds through the sales of the shop to help supplement grants throughout the community.

The organization also serves Orange County through volunteering and offering programs such as Elder Fun and Fine Arts.

Elder Fun is a program established and filled with activities, such as bingo, for the enrichment to the lives of elderly in local nursing homes.

The Fine Arts is an art program for all 4th graders in Orange County designed to expand the awareness of Art.

The organization also offers scholarships to local high school seniors.

Service League has operated Gifts, Etc. in the hospital since 1957.

Service League of Orange was started in 1954.
