Wellsville Lions Club continues to give to the comunity


The Wellsville Lions Club is dedicated to serve the greater Wellsville Community in keeping with our motto: “We Serve.”  One of the ways we do this is through donations in response to requests.  The following is a summary of the donations given out during the month of January 2019 by the various Lions Club committees.
-$300 donation to Wellsville High School Christmas Give-Away from the Youth Activities committee.
-$300 donation to the Allegany County SPCA to their building fund from the Civic Improvement committee.
-$325 donation to the Wellsville American Legion for their Main Street banner program from the Civic Improvement committee.
-$200 donation to Accord Community Action Angels 2019 from the Civic Improvement committee.

-$200 donation to the American Red Cross from the Health & Welfare committee.

-$1500 payment of three $500 scholarships for Wellsville students from the Scholarship committee.
-$300 donation to the Friends of the David A. Howe Library from the Civic Improvement committee.
The Wellsville Lions Club is able to provide these donations by virtue of its two major fund raising activities.  The first is the annual Lions show this February 22 and 23 and the second is the extremely popular Trout Derby April 27 - 28.  Anyone interested in becoming a part of this civic oriented organization and serving on one of our committees should contact Clint Gilkey at 585-593-5976 or gilkch@verizon.net. If anybody is in need of our services or financial help, please contact any Lions Club member or visit us on Facebook.
