Toukley Lions Club and Northlakes Leos have had another outstanding year raising more than $50,000 for a number of community causes and programs.
Activities initiated by Toukley Lions Club throughout 2024 have enabled members to offer genuine community support.
Even during these times of economic hardship, the generosity of Central Coast locals had been overwhelming, enabling the club to achieve its goals in offering help to those in need.
The total donations for 2024 exceeded $53,000 allowing the club to make generous donations to the Lions Foundation for causes such as Lions Health, Lions Spinal Research, Lions Diabetes and Children’s Mobility.
However, the bulk of the club’s activities has been the care and support of locals including Toukley Neighborhood Centre, World’s Big BBQ for Kids Cancer and its newest project Elsie’s Retreat for Palliative Care at Wyong Hospital.
Special mention goes to the Leo Club, a project of Gorokan-Kanwal Lions, where their junior members at Northlakes High School who with the help of their amazing teachers raised more than $15,000 and donated to more than 30 recipients.
A full list of this year’s activities can be found on the Toukley Lions Club Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/toukleylionsclub.
Community groups and organisations are being encouraged to get on board and support Toukley Lions and Northlakes Leos and help make a difference.
