Athlone Lions Club – which has been looking after the poor and the vulnerable for over thirty five years – is facing a pre-Christmas volunteer crisis – unless it can urgently recruit more help from the general public.
In a bid to expand the base of the club and build on the experience of the voluntary workers the Athlone Lions Club is inviting men and women from the local area to a public information night at the Sheraton Hotel on Wednesday week November 23rd at 8.30pm. On the night the club will outline the nature of the work it presently does in the community and will be seeking support from interested parties with a view to the Christmas Food Appeal and future projects.
For further information and news on the public information night at the Sheraton please contact Athlone Lions club President Michael McDonnell at 086 2621136 or Lions Club Deputy National President Ciaran Mullooly at 087 2433201 or e-mail vdg@lionsclubs.ie
