Each year for
the past 22 years, Community Living Essex County has operated a Gift Wrapping Booth fund-raiser at Devonshire Mall
in Windsor. Community Living Essex County has been extremely
fortunate to benefit from the generosity of hundreds of volunteers who, year
after year, give of their time and holiday spirit to wrap gifts of all sizes
for a small fee or donation. Volunteers
include students looking to secure community hours, local service clubs, church
groups and small and large businesses that use the opportunity to give back or
as a fun team building exercise. Individual volunteers and groups are being
recruited now.
The 2014 Gift Wrapping Booth is now official opened and will continue to operate
during Devonshire Mall hours each day until
Wednesday, December 24 (Christmas Eve) at 5 pm.
The booth will again be located near Chapters Bookstore in Devonshire
Mall on Howard Avenue in Windsor.
So save time in wrapping your holiday presents and consider bringing them to
the Community Living Essex County Gift Wrapping Booth at Devonshire Mall this
Christmas.
If you are interested in volunteering at the booth, please contact
Tony DeSantis, Manager Community Relations by calling 519-776-6483, ext
246, or emailing: tony@communitylivingessex.org
All proceeds from the annual Gift Wrapping Booth benefit Community Living
Essex County in support of over 600 people with an intellectual disability and
their families throughout Essex County.
