The Dunmore Lions Club is once again grateful to be able to serve the humanitarian needs of those involved in a devastating natural disaster. The Club has made a substantial contribution to its Northeast Regional District for the Kentucky Disaster Relief Fund.

With the help of the Dunmore Drug Store,  who generously donated cases of hand sanitizers,  alcohol wipes and isopropyl alcohol, as well as, financial donations from members of the club , the District filled a tractor trailer to aid the Kentucky tornado victims.  The District trailer met in Harrisburg with other Lions trailers from Pennsylvania on Jan. 21, 2022.
