Del Mar-Solana Beach Rotary Club members, spouses, and friends helped the Community Resource Center with its annual Holiday Baskets program last month.  On two separate nights, they helped prepare for Holiday Baskets and then assisted in the actual distribution to families.  They also donated goods and funding in support of the program.

Holiday Baskets is the largest holiday distribution program of its kind in San Diego County, providing a dignified and free “shopping experience” for families who might otherwise receive nothing for the holidays.  The program provides approximately 1,500 families in need with food, warm clothing, blankets, and gifts and books for children during the holiday season.  All the goods are provided by the community.  For more information, see www.crcncc.org.
 
The Del Mar-Solana Beach Rotary Club actively helps to make our community and the world a better place for others.
