Empty Stocking Fund

The Empty Stocking Fund, initiated by Cleveland Mayor Tom Rowland, Sandra Rowland, and Bobby Taylor, is a charitable effort designed to support underprivileged children during the Christmas season in Cleveland, TN. Annually, the pledge drive helps approximately 1,500 children by providing gifts through funds raised and distributed in collaboration with local schools based on family income.

The fundraiser culminates in the Cleveland Christmas Party, an event founded by Rev. M.E. Littlefield, where children receive their gifts. Community volunteers and local businesses contribute to the success of this initiative, which has become a cherished holiday tradition in the region.
