Kenilworth Advent Calendar to return for 2024 in the memory of former organiser
With 120 prizes to be won totalling over £6,000, all generously donated by many local businesses and organisations, at only £5 the Rotary Advent Calendar is a "perfect way to bring daily prizes, fun and excitement to your December".
But this year the community initiative led by Kenilworth Rotary Club - back for a third time - holds an even deeper significance.
"The Advent Calendar was the heart and soul project of our dear friend and dedicated Rotarian, Malcolm Matthews, who poured his passion and energy into making it such a success, raising an incredible £15,600 for local charities last year," Kenilworth Rotary Club said.
"Malcolm worked tirelessly throughout most of the year organising the calendar to raise funds for local charities like Myton Hospice, The Kenilworth Centre, Waverley Day Centre, Compassionate Kenilworth and Talisman Theatre who have all benefited from the proceeds of calendar sales.
"Sadly, Malcolm died suddenly earlier this year, but his spirit lives on in the calendar that he created."
This year Rotary are selling the calendar in Malcolm's memory, with all proceeds going to support the local causes that meant so much to him.
"By purchasing a calendar, you're not just entering for the chance to win wonderful prizes—you're helping to continue Malcolm's legacy of kindness and generosity," the club added.
"Please, let's come together as a community to make this year's Advent Calendar the most successful yet."
As with last year, each calendar has 24 numbered doors - one for each day of advent - with a list of five prize winners behind each door, each corresponding to one of 3,500 calendars sold.
Get your Kenilworth Rotary Advent Calendar from the Rotary stand which will be in Talisman Square or one of the local shops, or you can buy one in the Kenilworth Centre, or buy one online here.
