BURLINGTON, ON
For many years, Burlington Lions Club members have had the great honour of ringing the bells as a group for the Christmas Kettle campaign on a Saturday in December at the two largest malls in Burlington, and were looking forward to doing the same again this year.
Lions Perry Bowker and Blair Greer look on as Lions President Ken O’Breza presents cheque to Laura Oros, Kettle Campaign Director
Elevated COVID restrictions meant it would not be possible to conduct the fundraiser this year. The Lions Club members immediately resolved to help in a small way to offset the loss of donations that they otherwise might have helped raise.
It is with great pleasure that the Lions Club made an emergency donation of $1,500.
We will miss ringing the bells something we have enjoyed doing. We urge readers to follow the Lions Club example and remember this great cause. They do fantastic work.
