Members of the Akron Lions Club recently got together to distribute 26 bags of food items for a Christmas dinner to some of their Akron neighbors. Due to the COVID19 virus, their
fundraising opportunities have been cancelled, but not their willingness to serve their fellow neighbors in need. The club held a Go Fund Me project, which brought in some funds, and
