GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB have long supported our area animal shelters with funds and supplies. The club women have generously donated a SUV-filled supply of cat and dog food, kitty litter, etc. to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay and delivered by member Sandi Marrow, who chairs the club’s Conservation & Environment Committee and personally volunteers at the shelter.
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members recently feted President Annette Bellingar with a lovely cake and ice cream at a safely-distanced outdoor club picnic to celebrate her “Milestone” birthday. Congratulations and Best Wishes to President Annette!!
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMEN’S CLUB has remained very active during these last 5+ months of covid-19, mostly working safely at home. KarenSue Molis has knitted sleep mats from recycled grocery bags which were delivered to an agency that serves the area homeless population. Gloria Bucher has sewn a large number of seat belt protectors for post-surgical patients’ comfort and delivered to Moffitt / McKinley Outpatient Center.
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members have been providing “comfort pillows” for post-surgical patients at Advent Health Hospital for years. Member Barbara Bush has most recently delivered 40 pillows to Mr. Cappellini at the Hospital. Since the entire club can’t gather during Covid-19, Ms. Booth stuffed and finished the pillows herself, which were sewn by members Susan Corcoran, Barbara Booth AND Club Booster Husband, Lonnie Lykins. Hats off to Mr. Lykins!
GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members have individually continued a regular stream of food and clothing donations supplied to St. Vincent DePaul Food Pantry in Land O’Lakes. The clubwoman, despite restrictions due to corona-19, have continued their service to the community through many their numerous continuing projects.
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.
