Macclesfield Lions Christmas Food Parcels - Just Giving Campaign

Monday, 23 November 2020 21:00

Macclesfield Lions Christmas Food Parcels - Just Giving campaign is aiming to help as many vulnerable people as they can in the Macclesfield/Bollington area.

Traditionally the Lions would send out at least 150 food parcels at Christmas but COVID will prohibit us from doing face to face food collections at stores this year, hence the Just Giving appeal.

Most of the COOP stores in the area are collecting goods in store for us but members of the public are invited to donate via the JUST GIVING page as an alternative.

Between May and September we raised £5,000 for local causes and we hope to have a good response to this latest project so that we can support local people in need.

You can help raise money for Macclesfield & District Lions Club by donating online:

https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/christmas-food-parcel-appeal?utm_source=Sharethis&utm_medium=campaign&utm_content=christmas-food-parcel-appeal&utm_campaign=pfp-email&utm_term=44e770d4ba20466884d47a7b2cd445cc

JustGiving sends your donation straight to Macclesfield & District Lions Club and automatically and reclaims Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer, so your donation is worth even more!

Deborah Hughes,
Macclesfield and District Lions.
