Christmas Food Appeal 2020

Christmas Food Appeal 2020
With Covid-19 restrictions in place, this year's appeal appeared in an unusual guise!
​
Christmas Marathon Walk Sat 5th/Sun 6th December 2020
Some of us have undertaken a Marathon Walk, either individually or in groups (socially distanced, of course) to raise the funds needed this year.
​Participating Lions members and friends have Marathon Walk sponsorship cards, please help us to help others.
Some suitable looped walks are available on the Malahide Community Formum Website.

For many years Malahide Lions Club, in common with clubs throughout the country, has made sure that those less well off in our society are not forgotten at Christmas time. Since 2003 the collection of food was discontinued for logistical reasons.

For some years now we only collect money with which we purchase vouchers from the local supermarkets. These are then distributed to those in need. We have found this to be a most satisfactory arrangement as it enables the recipients to purchase what they really need. Furthermore, it also means that we are able to negotiate a really good discount on the vouchers.

A very special thank you must go to our many friends without whose very generous assistance our task would be much harder.
The success of this project is due to the generosity of the people of Malahide who year in year out are tremendous supporters of the club.
Through confidential contacts in the area the club has been able to identify those in need who may not otherwise come to the notice of other charitable agencies.
The clubs motto is “We Serve”. Truly it can be said that the food appeal each year lives up to that high ideal.
President: Rosemary Minton
