St Arnaud Rotary gets ready for gifting
Anyone wishing to donate a new toy or item is encouraged to do so by dropping them off to the NCN Herald office, St Arnaud Solar or the St Arnaud Community Resource Centre.
IT’S the time of year to start gearing up for gift giving.
The Rotary Club of St Arnaud will begin collecting gifts for youngsters across town ahead of the Christmas season.
Last year, they collected and distributed more than 360 presents, each hand-wrapped and delivered for anyone in primary school or younger.
Rotary secretary Luke Hanley said the club was proud to be continuing this initiative for the third year in a row.
“We’re so thankful for all the people who have supported us in the past,” he said.
“We had people come from far and wide to donate a gift and we’re looking forward to doing it again in December.”
Anyone wishing to donate a new toy or item is encouraged to do so by dropping them off to the NCN Herald office, St Arnaud Solar or the St Arnaud Community Resource Centre.
You can also contact Rotary if you’d like to help wrap later on in the year.
