WoodmenLife chapters had another busy month! Our members showed their ongoing commitment to family, community, and country — and they had some fun at the same time.

Did your chapter do a really cool project? We want to hear about it! Upload your photo and tell us all about the project at WoodmenLife.org/Photos. You could see your photo featured here!

Above, members with Chapter 1571 in Martinez, GA, presented a $2,000 donation to Augusta Locally Grown. The organization leases plots and teaches people how to farm and be self-sustaining. Excess harvested produce is sold at the organization’s Farmers Market.

 

Photo shows six people standing together with an oversized check. The check is made out to SafeHomes of Augusta in the amount of $750. The group is standing indoors, and there are shelves and a window behind them.

Chapter 1571 members also donated $750 to SafeHomes Domestic Violence Center. The donation will be used to purchase needed supplies for residents. Pictured are chapter members Chuck Clark, Carolyn Clark, Dot Icenhour, Betty Curtis, and Dale Bradford, with SafeHomes Executive Director Aimee Hall.

 

Photo shows three people standing together holding an oversized check. The check is made out to Columbia County Cares in the amount of $400.

Chapter 1571 had a busy month! Members donated $400 to and volunteered at Columbia County Cares Food Pantry. They cleaned out a walk-in freezer and assembled tea bags for distribution. Pictured are chapter members Carolyn Clark and Chuck Clark with Columbia County Cares Director Donna Player.

 

Photo shows four people standing behind a table and chairs stacked high with donated food.

Chapter 635 in Fairfield, IL, donated $414 worth of food to the Frontier Community College food pantry. The pantry supports on-campus students who are away from home. Chapter Secretary Connie Smith delivered the food, which was accepted by students Drake Buffington, Rayonna Ridley, and Riley Roark.

 

Six people stand around the open hatchback of a vehicle. In the back of the vehicle are stacks of backpacks filled with donated school supplies.

Chapter 860 in Naples, FL, participated in the Stuff the Bus campaign, which was hosted by the Boys & Girls Club of Collier County. To help welcome children back for another school year, members filled 24 backpacks with supplies for students in elementary school. Pictured are Jenna Eby, Becky Adams, Gunner E., Paisley E., Isis LaRose (Vice President of Partnerships & Strategic Relations), and Tyler LaGrou.
