Lord Baltimore Lions support Food Bank of Delaware

Lord Baltimore Lions Club is beginning its eighth consecutive year of service volunteering at the Food Bank of Delaware in Milford.

Lions Club members will continue volunteering for two shifts per month, covering every second Monday afternoon and also working the morning shift on the last Friday of the month. Members either meet in Ocean View to carpool for the 43-mile one-way trip to Milford or  drive individually to the Food Bank facility for shifts.

All Lord Baltimore Lions are excited about their next shifts, to be held in the beautiful new Food Bank facility at 102 Veterans Memorial Highway, Milford.

During the final December work shift, Lord Baltimore Lions volunteers took a few minutes to present a club donation in support of the lifesaving Food Bank of Delaware programs. President Scott Brannan presented the donation to Food Bank officials John Snarsky, Milford branch operations director, and Aaron Stone, volunteer coordinator.

Brannan said, “Lord Baltimore Lions consider it a privilege to be volunteering at the Food Bank of Delaware. How pleased we are to be able to donate in some small way to a cause that will make lives better for our neighbors and others in need.”

The donation was raised through fundraising efforts of the Lord Baltimore Lions Club, and enhanced with a grant received from the Delaware Lions Foundation. Brannan offered his sincere appreciation to the foundation for the generous award to support this special service project.

The Lord Baltimore Lions Club has for many years been involved in combatting hunger, an important world cause of Lions Clubs International. Members have volunteered and supported the Feed My Sheep Program at Mariners Bethel Church in Ocean View. Over the past two years, they also have volunteered with members from Mariners Bethel Church and other churches in the Southeast Sussex Ministerium to distribute food to families in need every Tuesday afternoon as part of the Frankford Food Distribution Program.
