The following donations were recommended by Kenilworth Lions’ Community Service Committee and agreed unanimously by Club members at the September club meeting:
- A grant of £1000 has been pledged to Kenilworth Town Football Club. This will be used to purchase football kit and other equipment which will enable more children to play, and will also mean that KTFC can play their home matches in Kenilworth
- A grant of £1250 has been awarded to help with the running costs of the Bereavement Café
- A sum of £1000 has been pledged to assist a single Kenilworth mother living in very difficult circumstances. This money will be used to provide a safe home environment for her children
- A donation of £1000 has been made to the Lions Club International appeal to provide disaster relief in Nepal
A total of £4,250 has been donated or pledged in direct grants this month
In addition, Furniture Store vouchers to the value of £440 were issued to applicants sponsored by Warwick District Council Social Services, Lillington Community Pantry and the Family Information Service.
