Wakefield Sons and Daughters of Italy Support the Food Pantry

Members gathered to catch up and pitch in

Recently the Wakefield Lodge gathered safely outside of Laurie’s 909 to catch up with each other. Since regular meetings and celebrations have been on hold since April, the work and fund raising for the community was also postponed. At this gathering, members took the opportunity to collect food, laundry soap and monetary donations for the Wakefield Food Pantry. Although only a few members were present, a trunkful of donations was collected.

The Lodge would like to welcome recently initiated member Maryann Devito. Anyone interested in checking out the club is welcome to attend the next gathering, scheduled (weather permitting) for Tuesday, September 8 at Laurie’s 909. It will be an outdoor, bring-your-own-chair-and-mask get together. Start time will be 6:00 p.m. To learn more about the Wakefield Sons & Daughters of Italy, visit their Facebook page. As always, contact President Adriana for information about joining at wakefieldosia@gmail.com
