Stocking Stuffers for Covenant Woods
Each year the Guild fills approximately 85 stockings for the residents at Manor East at Covenant Woods (health care). We'd love your help with this effort of generosity and care. Below, you will find suggestions of items that are helpful and enjoyed by our friends. Please do NOT wrap the treasures. We enjoy placing your wonderful assortment of gifts with each resident according to their needs. Remember small items are preferred, but NOT samples or mega size items!
