Members of Vera Lions Club gathered in Vera on May the 1st to present to Sister Antonia of The Hogar San Agustin Children’s Refuge in Vera with a selection of educational DVDs and books. Although essential for the work and education of the children in the refuge these expensive programmes (700+ Euros) have been beyond the finances of the home.
Sister Antonio said “ I have wanted these for a very long time, I am absolutely delighted to receive them and plans to start using them immediately”
Vera Lions Club members were privileged to be taken to the refuge to see the facilities for the children where Sister Antonia explained more about the functions of the Refuge, which can accommodate up to twenty children at any one time.
It is true to say that each of the Lions present was moved by this presentation and experience, several members made the comment “This is what being a member of Lions is all about”
Pictured are some members of Vera Lions Club with Sister Antonia.
Vera Lions Club meet at the Vera Hotel on the first Wednesday of the month at 7.30pm guests are always welcome. Vera Lions Welfare telephone line is 634338733 or email veralions@mail.com.
