GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB held a very successful fundraiser and luncheon to benefit Sunrise Domestic Violence Shelter of Pasco County. Chair Mary Anne Lykins coordinated the event at which the venue was awash in a sea of purple as club members wore purple to bring attention to the serious topics of domestic and sexual violence. The Woman’s Club has supported this and other area shelters for decades with monetary donations as well as much-needed goods and clothing. The clubwomen enjoyed the luncheon as they raised over $1100 which was presented to the Shelter, together with a filled-to-the-brim truckload of donated items to assist the shelter’s residents.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members recently welcomed the group of Veterans returning from their Honor Flight to visit the Washington, DC WWII, Korean & Vietnam War Memorials, during which wars they served. The Woman’s Club proudly supports and honors our Veterans in many ways throughout the year through their volunteerism.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB had a team of members assisting with the 2018 Pasco County Coastal Cleanup as they have for many years. Co-Chairs Lonna Vizzari and Nancy Allen coordinated the club’s effort and the club team registered well over 400 volunteers who came out individually, in church and/or community groups to improve the quality of the environment by collecting tons of trash from along the area roadways.
