Trivia Contest To Support Aurora Food Pantries Amid Pandemic

AURORA, IL — The Aurora Noon Lions Club is set to host a trivia-night fundraiser to support two of the city’s food banks as they work to keep residents fed during the coronavirus pandemic.

The club’s fundraiser runs from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday at Luigi’s Pizza and Fun Center, according to a news release. Proceeds from the $10-per-ticket admission charge will benefit the Aurora Interfaith and Marie Wilkinson food pantries. The goal is to raise $1,000 for the pantries, Noon Lions president Arvid Meyer said in the release.

Individuals and teams are invited to join the fun at Luigi’s, where trivia players can win a wine tasting for four people from Coopers Hawk, bread for a year from Panera Bread, and a gift card to Tredwell Coffee, the release states.

Luigi’s will also be selling frozen pizza kits for $6 each or $10 for two, and donations will be accepted to support the food pantries. Social distancing measures and other safety precautions will be in place to ensure trivia players’ safety, the release states.
