CATHOLIC CHARITIES SEEKING CHRISTMAS STOCKING DONATIONS FOR LOCAL CHILDREN IN NEED

~Operation Stocking Stuffer in Full Swing~

Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada is collecting Christmas stockings for children who may not be receiving other gifts this holiday season. Please join us in helping parents provide a little joy to their children this Christmas season. Through the help of generous donations, Catholic Charities aims to provide more than 1,400 stockings to children served by Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada in Washoe County and across Northern Nevada.

Catholic Charities is asking for the community’s help to fulfill the stocking needs. Get creative and donate a pre-filled Christmas stocking for children ranging in age from infants to 18, make a donation by visiting the website, mailing a cash donation to Catholic Charities or shopping the organization’s wish list on Amazon Smile.

Each stocking should have a value of $20 and can be filled with toys, toiletries, treats, books, games, gift cards, etc. Please do not include perishable items. Stockings will be gender specific for the following age groups:  infants up to one year of age, 2, 3-5, 6-9, 10-13, 14-18.  All stockings should be labeled with intended age and gender.

Drop off pre-filled stockings, stockings, and stocking stuffers at St. Vincent’s Thrift Stores in Reno and Sparks Mon.-Sun. from 8:00am-1:00pm. Donations are being accepted for this event through December 9, 2022.
