The Christmas Present Project

9th November 2017

We are thrilled to be supporting The Rotary Club of Alnwick with their Christmas Present Project by becoming a collection point.

 

What is the Christmas Present Project?

It is heart-breaking to think that whilst we are celebrating the festive season and sharing gifts with one another, there is a child in our local community that will receive nothing. Thanks to the Rotary Club of Alnwick as well as the local community, things should be very different this year!

 

How can you get involved?

Would like to help a disadvantaged child this Christmas and truly put a smile on their face? Listen up!

Step 1. Visit either The Boony Hoose Company or George Penrose & Sons
Step 2. You will be given a label with a child’s name as well as information such as their age
Step 3. Buy an appropriate present for the child
Step 4. Place your gift in a plastic bag with the label on it (please do not wrap the gift!)
Step 5. Drop your present off at the George F. White office for the Rotary Club to Collect

Please note you have until Wednesday 20th December to drop off your gifts at the George F. White office.
