GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB has collected many gently used shoes to be donated to “Soles4Souls”.  Even during Covid-19, Member Sandi Marrow, Chair of the club Conservation Committee, has collected and delivered wagonloads of cartons to DSW, a local collection point, to be forwarded to the “Soles” organization, which provides opportunity to those in impoverished countries.  The shoes are distributed to the needy, helps prevents injury and illness and adds personal dignity, as well as keeping these items out of landfills.  These simple donations help to save the planet and change lives for people in these countries. 

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB President Annette Bellingar joined the group of Little Women of Lutz and helped with their recent semi-annual roadway cleanup of their dedicated roadway: Lutz-Lake Fern Road, as part of the “Keep Tampa Bay Beautiful” county-wide project.  The Woman’s Club often collaborates with and supports its sponsored Juniorette group, Little Women of Lutz, in many projects as well as guiding and mentoring the girls in leadership and community service.

GFWC Lutz-Land O’Lakes Woman’s Club is celebrating Independence Day differently this year due to COVID-19 and the cancellation of its famous Lutz 4th of July Celebration.

On July 4th, members will display their new holiday banner at the Historic Old Lutz School and wave flags while being safely distanced.

The Woman’s Club wishes everyone a safe and well-distanced holiday on this very different 4th of July.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY EVERYONE AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!!!

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members have continued to collect and donate needed food, hygiene and clothing items to the needy and food insecure in our area during this difficult period of COVID-19 and job loss.  Each week since March, club members have delivered food and supplies to St. Vincent DePaul Food Pantry in Land O’Lakes as Darlene Choe and Patricia Serio (pictured above) have done.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB, although somewhat sidelined during the Covid-19 shut-down, members have continued to serve the community through very generous monetary donations and delivery of food items and supplies to several area food pantries.  In the past several weeks, the club has donated $2000 to CARES of Pasco County and $2000 to Metropolitan Ministries for their missions of feeding the food secure in our area.  In addition, many club members have individually stepped up and donated more than $1,000 in food donations weighing in at over 500 lbs. and delivered same to St. Vincent

DePaul Food Pantry and other local food banks.
