The Rotary Club of Dundas Valley Sunrise Socks & Skivvies was another great success. Thank you to members of the club and a host of community folks who purchased socks, underwear, gloves, toques, scarves and other basic clothing for men, women, youth and children. Nancy Baker and Russ Powers championed the 5th Annual Socks & Skivvies drive, with Cara Bensimon of Hamilton Jewish Family Services hosting the sorting bee. Bins were placed at 25 different locations and brought to HJFS for sorting and bagging, with each bag containing around $375 worth of goods. Twenty-two bags valued at $8250 were prepared for delivery to different agencies including Routes Youth Centre, Mission Services, Native Women’s Services, Seafarer’s International, Ancaster Community Services, Salvation Army, Wesley Family Services, St. Matthew’s House, St. James Newcomers, Cathedral Café, Women Kind and Dundas Community Services.
