Lions Need Your Help To Keep Santa On The Roof: You will have seen Canowindra Lions Club has installed Santas on buildings along Gaskill Street and around Canowindra. The installation of Santas is a Canowindra Lions fund raising venture with a small fee of $50 per Santa. Unfortunately, the Lions Club does not have enough Santas to adorn all business premises around the Canowindra district.
As such, the club is taking the opportunity to reach out to local businesses for a donation of $50 to support the community.
Donations can be made at First Choice Credit Union (Bennett Keogh & Associates) Gaskill St Canowindra or made via EFT to First Choice Credit Union: Account Name: Lion’s Club Canowindra, BSB 802 318, Account Number 4102 2967. Please include your business name as the reference.
Once a donation is received, if you need a receipt send an email to canowindralionsclub@gmail.com. Money raised supports those within our community plus ongoing Lion’s projects.
