GFWC Lutz-Land O’ Lakes club members Annette Bellingar, Deb Cardona and Dee Knerr participated in the Wreaths Across America ceremony at the Veterans Cemetery on Kennedy Blvd in Tampa on December 14th. Every tombstone had a wreath placed against it, which was a beautiful sight. The ceremony that followed reminded us all of the past and present cost of freedom to all of us so lucky to live in this great country.
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB has raised funds and a team of members delivered a check for $1,000 to St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry in Land O’Lakes. These funds will be used to replenish food and household items on the pantry’s shelves which have been emptied due to the large demand following Hurricanes Helene and Milton. The Woman’s Club has long supported this very worthy organization.
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members together with their affiliated teen club, the Little Women of Lutz, participated in the Annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk at the Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel. Members walked, worked the information tent, handed out water and generously donated funds in support of this important cause, which has affected many Woman’s Club members personally. All funds raised by the Woman’s Club and the Little Women of Lutz were donated to the American Cancer Society.
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members celebrated a “Witches’ Brew” Fun-Raiser theme on Halloween. A highly energetic gathering of this coven of witches flew in on specially decorated brooms to raise over $1,000 which was donated to the St. Vincent dePaul Food Pantry in Land O’Lakes for the needy and food insecure. These ladies enjoyed several broom dances, a delicious witches’ brew and a lovely buffet luncheon to raise funds for this well-deserved local charity.
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members include a group of needlework masters who have worked over the summer to produce a large number of comfort aids and pillows to support breast cancer patients at both Advent Health and Moffitt Cancer Center.
