Charity

W Bro Peter Foulds, our Charity Steward, reported on another successful fund raising year at the March committee meeting.

With regular donations and special events, not to mention a little help from the exchequer on the gift aided donations, the Lodge had raised a magnificent £2,000.

The Lodge had approved the following donations to Local Charities:

• Acorns Childrens Charity £300    
• Campden House Home Care £300
• MacMillan Unit Evesham Hospital £300
• St Richards Hospice Breast Care Unit at Worcester Royal Hospital £300
• The Garage Art Group Evesham £300                  

In addition a cheque for £1,000 is to be sent to the Alzheimer’s Society as a result of Mrs Hilary Crowder’s charity Appeal at the recent Elmley Castle Ladies Night celebrations at Wyck House, Stow-on-the-Wold.

Another year when the generosity of our members enables us to help so many who are less fortunate than ourselves.
