The Wilmette Rotary runs a Holiday Gift Drive for Homeless in Chicago's West Side in coordination with The Sisters of Fraternite' Notre Dame who run the St. Roger Abbey French Organic Pa'tisserie in Wilmette whose primary mission is to care for over 200 Homeless men and women in Chicago. They have partnered with them for over 4 years to gather needed items for their clients as winter approaches. It is easy to help the effort by using an Amazon Gift Registry to directly purchase the items they need.. Click the link and go to the registry or search Wilmette Rotary 2024 Registry, click on an item or group of items and chose ship to Sister Valerie Marie directly and you are done.
Here is the link directly to the list: https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/28RFO9JHT1P4E
Your receipt is your tax donation proof. Remember, do not ship it to you, select Sister Valerie Marie directly. They want to be able to hand out the needed items by December 20th.
You can order sleeping bags, blankets, socks, hats and even personal items but please stick to the list. Feel free to share the link and post on social media. Anyone in America can order and gift to this cause.
The Wilmette Club thanks you for your dedication to Service Over Self.
