Happy Labor Day from the Weslaco Lions Club 🦁

Bridging the gap from Friday to Monday. ❤️

Our Weslaco Lions Club volunteers came together to shop, sort, pack and prepare bags for our Bridge to Monday | Puente hacia Lunes project.

Each bag is filled with food and snacks to help families with children have something to get them through the weekend when school meals aren’t available.

It may look like a table full of brown paper bags… but to us, each bag represents a family, a child, and a little extra peace of mind going into the weekend.

We’re grateful for every Lion who gave their time, every helping hand, and everyone who has supported this project including WISD, Valley Nature Center, and Levi Strauss (Mercedes Outlet Store).

This is what service looks like. 🦁💙💛

Being a Weslaco Lion means being a part of an international association. We serve is our motto and we carry out our mission in our community, our area, our state and across the world.

Our Club has committed to doing our small part in responding to the tragedy in Nepal by sending a $1,000 donation to Lions Clubs International Foundation and designating it for the disaster response underway by the Lions of Nepal.

Every person has the opportunity to help those in need and Lions Clubs International ensures that we can do that for our neighbor down the street or our neighbors on the other side of the globe.

Interested in learning more about what we do? Send us a message. Want details on how to donate to support Nepal during this difficult time? Send us a message.

We Serve!
