We need your help
In honour of Mark Donlon, we are continuing the Easter Basket tradition again this year to support children who utilize the services at Children’s First!
While in previous years, members were welcome to send monetary donations, this year we really encourage our members to prepare their own baskets so that we can meet the urgent deadline of April 11th.
If you are interested in participating there are 2 options:
1. Empty baskets will be made available at the April 4th Membership meeting OR you can pick one up at the Rotary office
2. Purchase your own basket and indicate if your basket is intended for a boy or girl and which age group (see below list for age groups)
Drop off your prepared Easter basket by April 11th by 4:00pm at the Rotary Office.
Children’s First will provide drop-off's to their client’s homes before Easter therefore it is important to have your baskets handed in to the Rotary office by April 11th by 4:00pm.
