saturday georgetown lions club la tack ling a special project in the way of i tag day for the lions food for britain fund the following article from the march issue of the lions news gives a detailed account of how the food is shipped and where it goes readers are reminded of one think particularly the food is distributed in britain to needy people who do not receive parcels from other sources which makes the gift particularly acceptable by the recipients here is the article prepared by international counsellor reg c everett the people of britain are not complaining they are not the complaining kind but they are going through days and nights of want and hunger they are showing the saint staunch fortitude they showed in the days of the blitz jbut hunger is a gnawing weakening thing especially the hunger that comes from never having quite enough to eat fne people of britain are hun gry it ii not just the children who are suffering but eervon the man who must work the woman who must keep the home and try to feed her children yes there has been appeal after appeal during the past few years until it seems thej will never end but we cannot brush this one aside we in canada are un doubtedly living in a land of plenty while people in britain do not have- even the bare necessities of life ont of our plent we should be willing and glad to share with those noble people in the british isles who ha e done so much for us many lions are no doubt sending food parcels to relatives oversins but there are many thousands of families who have no one to send them food parcels these are the people for whom we make this appeal these are the people who sorely need our help one thousand parcels of food each weighing twenty pounds have been shipped to britain by the lions of district a this is a grand start but we must keep going because the need is so great many of our members have been asked how the money that has been sent in for the liona food for britain fund is being spent how the food is being packed transported overseas and delivered here are a few facts that will no doubt prove of interest a all cheques for the fund should be made payable to lions food for britain fund b receipts will be issued andthe money de posited in a special food for britain account in the bank of toronto c the contents of the parcels has been selec ted from a list of much needed supplies to the com mittee from authorities in england thetood is then purchased from a large organization which has pack ing and shipping facilities d each package is individually wrapped lab elled with recipient s name and transported in large shipments bv fast ocean freight to britain e upon arrival in britain the packages are delivered by expr ss direct to the homes of the per sons for whom they are intended f each parol contains a card giving the name of the club making the donations also the name and address of the club secretary g tver thing possible has b en done to per sonahze the gifts and to encourage the recipients to acknowledge same h the women s voluntary services in eng land nn organisation very highly recommended by the canadian red cross has undertaken to provide the committee with the names and addresses of individual families who are known to be in the greatest need of additional food supplies i there is absolutely no duty collected by the british government on any of these food parcels sent to fxnyon in grcit britain recipients of these food parcels do not have to surrender ration points regnrdleab of how many parcels they mly receive during a month k the staff in the district office is handling all the necessary detail work bookkeeping addressing of labels etc etc this is the most important jobthat canadian lions have been asked to do since the lions british war victims fund was closed has your club sent in their donation yet 60 00 will send one parcel a month for the next six months several clubs have pledged themselves to raise 5 00 per member each month i he average club has a membership of about 50 members which means khey will raise 250 00 per month and will thereby be able to make it possible for 25 parcels to be shipped each
