ORLAND PARK, IL — The Orland Park Lions Club graciously arrived at Orland Township on Friday, Nov. 19, with a substantial donation for the Orland Township Food Pantry to assist residents experiencing financial hardship, according to the office of Township Supervisor Paul O’Grady.

The Orland Park Lions Club, which has served the community for well over 55 years, donated $1,800 to help distribute non-perishable food, water, fresh produce, bakery items, meat and other household necessities to Orland Township residents in need this holiday season.
