Holiday Stockings for Homeless Children is an annual U.S. Coast Guard family and community friends effort to provide and deliver handmade Holiday Stockings filled with new gifts and useful essentials and cheer to homeless children ages birth to 17 years living in and out of shelters in the Puget Sound Area.

Volunteer Counts: Friday 148, Saturday 480, Total 628 representing 1644 volunteer hours
Number of Stockings Stuffed: Infant to 17 years = 2285, Street Kids = 766, Total 3051 for 90 Shelters
