Erin Rotary Fill a Stocking Drive

Help make the holidays brighter for local youth!

We’re filling 25 Christmas stockings for young people (ages 12–18) through East Wellington Community Services (EWCS)—and with your help, we can do even more.

This year, Rotary will match local donations to provide Christmas gifts for Ukrainian orphans who have lost parents in the war.

How to Help:

1. Make a Financial Contribution

• Send an e-transfer to: erinrotarytreasurer@gmail.com
• Add “Holiday Stocking Drive” in the comment box
• Create your own password and email it to the same address

2. Donate Stocking Items

• Drop off new items at EWCS, 45 Main St., Erin
• or contact bellclairem@gmail.com for collection.
• Toques, scarves and gloves may be gently used and purchased from EWCS New to You—supporting youth and local reuse. A great way to give back twice!

Please donate by December 2, 2025 so we can deliver the stockings in time for the holidays.
