COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES

We have a new Community project this month. On  Tuesday February 18th we will be “stuffing bags” for

seniors. The event will be held in the lodge room at 1 PM. Impact of So. AZ-our local food bank has a list of 250 at risk seniors who will really benefit from our efforts. They will get a bag with items like: soup, crackers, milk, cookies, tuna and chicken, nuts, granola bars and peanut butter. The gift bags will be given to our senior friends in addition to the usual stipend that they receive monthly. This project is possible because of two grants from the grand lodge. The Beacon grant and the Gratitude grant total $8,000.00!!! This amount will make these bags be very impactful. Thank you to our awesome grant writer-Jack

Baillergeon for helping secure these funds to assist our less fortunate neighbors. There is s sign-up sheet in the lounge. Please sign up and help us with this worthwhile project.
