Walter Stewart’s and Stewart’s Wine & Spirits are proud to participate in the town wide Horizons Giving Day, Wednesday May 15th. Donate your T-Bills at Walter Stewart’s and shop at Stewart’s Wine & Spirits (we will donate 10% of sales between 1 and 5pm) to help support this essential program.
Horizons successfully closes gaps in opportunity so youth from low-income families can live empowered, choice-filled lives.
Funds raised by Horizons National mean more Horizons programs can be opened and more students can be served. Each new program we open – dedicated to closing gaps in opportunity, skills, and achievement – helps transform students, families, and communities across the country.
When you give to a local Horizons program, you’re helping that program serve local students – local giving stays local. Horizons students begin as early as pre-Kindergarten and return year after year through high school. And given this long-term commitment, they thrive!

The memory of Peter Lewis lives on with his favorite holiday tradition – Peter’s Stocking. For the 41stholiday season, Walter Stewart’s invites our youngest shoppers to enter for a chance to win the toys in the giant red Christmas stocking hanging in our store. A tradition started by the late Peter Lewis. “Just seeing the happy faces of the kids makes me smile,” Peter said back in 2006 in response to this annual event. The toys were purchased from the New Canaan Toy Store with a few “Peter approved” traditional music toys and classic games. Walter Stewart’s will also donate toys purchased from New Canaan Toy Store to the Toys for Tots drive.
Walter Stewart’s completed it’s annual Holiday T-Bill Donation Days drive to benefit local charities and together we raised $1531.60 for participating local organizations!
