To volunteer our time and provide assistance to the disabled, underprivileged, elderly and youth of our community, particularly related to sight and hearing in accordance with the mission of Lions Club International.
March, 2020:
I want to take this opportunity to thank our outstanding community for their generosity and caring during these unprecedented times . Lion Carl Goodman and I reached out to the Food Pantry and Rec Department late last week and the immediate need that was lacking was Toilet Paper and Paper Towels and Sanitzer for our Seniors and citizens who depend on these services. With the help of fellow Lions, Paula , Marilyn , Susan Covert for her e-mail blast , Karl Thulin and Clark Kidder with Banners and Signs we were able to pull this together in a 48 hour period and reach out to the community and collect approximately 240 rolls of TP, 60 rolls of paper towels, several containers of sanitizing wipes and some cash donations .
This outpouring of care and compassion is why we live here with such wonderful people!
Depending on the duration of the virus outbreak we might be doing more to help meet the ongoing need and as Lions , I know we know we are up to the challenge . Special thanks to Don Shumway and Carl Goodman for their help and socializing even though it was done at 10-15 feet. :-))
Please stay safe and we are all in this together and WILL get through it ,
Best regards,,
Lion Al Sorensen
