OBG Lions Club of Lady Lake Donates $1500 to Beyond the Walls Food Pantry, Aiding 750 Families

The Orange Blossom Gardens Lions Club of Lady Lake continues its longstanding commitment to combating hunger in the community by donating $1500 to the Beyond the Walls Food Pantry in Fruitland Park. This donation is a timely relief, providing essential support to the pantry as it serves 750 families.

The Orange Blossom Gardens Lions Club serves the local community under the principles of its core Pillars of Service, including Hunger. The recent donation underscores the Lions Club's dedication to alleviating food insecurity and improving the lives of local residents.

Beyond the monetary value, this donation represents the significance of 'little things' in making a substantial impact. With the support of the Orange Blossom Gardens Lions Club, Beyond the Walls Food Pantry will be able to resume providing essentials like eggs, milk, and butter for the next several months after having to stop recently due to rising food costs. These items, often taken for granted, play a crucial role in the nutrition and well-being of families facing economic hardships.

Barbara Crewell, President of the Orange Blossom Gardens Lions Club, highlighted this contribution's profound effect on the community, stating, "In times of need, it's the little things that matter most. We are honored to support Beyond the Walls Food Pantry in its mission to provide essential resources to those in our community. This donation reflects our ongoing commitment to address hunger as one of our core pillars of service by providing resources to our neighbors and making a tangible difference in their lives."

The Beyond the Walls Food Pantry, located in Fruitland Park, offers a range of vital services to the community beyond food assistance. In addition to its food pantry, the organization provides holiday meal assistance, dental care programs, and haircut programs. These initiatives reflect their holistic approach to supporting individuals and families in need.
