Following their mantra of "Where there's a need, there's a Lion," the Sidney Lions Club donated $2500 to the Fairview Ministerial Association for victims of the disastrous flooding in the Fairview area.
"As a local club, we felt we needed to help," past-president Raymond Carlson said. He also said that manpower may be available to help with cleanup once people are able to return to their homes. "We serve," stated president Raleigh Peck.
According to Pastor Kelly Sloan of the Fairview Alliance Church, over $16,000, plus various supplies have been donated as of Thursday morning, but the need is great.
An account has been established at Merchants Bank in Fairview for those wishing to help. Funds are distributed through the Fairview Ministerial Association by contacting Zion Lutheran Church, Fairview Alliance Church or St. Catherine's Catholic Church.
