GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB longtime member, Aniko Solomonson, was recently honored by Tampa GEM Sertoma, with its Service to Mankind Award. Board Chairman of Tampa GEM Sertoma, Donna Silari, presented Ms. Solomonson with a beautiful commemorative plaque in recognition of her contributions on behalf the homeless. She has made it her mission over the past several years to involve the Woman’s Club, other clubs in the Florida Federation, churches and service groups in crocheting and distributing sleeping roll bed mats from recycled plastic grocery bags for the area’s homeless population. Ms. Solomonson has taught numerous groups this method and as a result, her good work has multiplied and extended far beyond the Tampa Bay area and even internationally.
