KIND DONATION: Lions Club of Nowra president Mick Ison presented $10,000 to the Shoalhaven City and Shoalhaven Lions Linear Accelerator and Cancer Treatment Fundraising Committee treasurer Peter Dun.
MORE FUNDS: Lions Club of Jervis Bay president Maureen Clemence presented a cheque of $10,000 to Shoalhaven Lions Linear Accelerator and Cancer Treatment Fundraising Committee treasurer Peter Dun.
THE Shoalhaven City and Shoalhaven Lions Linear Accelerator and Cancer Treatment Fundraising Committee has raised more than $1.7 million.
The Lions clubs Shoalhaven are planning a submission to Lions International that could see an instant injection of $75,000 to the fund.
Shoalhaven Lions is made up of seven Lions clubs and one Lioness club. They are applying to Lions International for the annual grant of up to $75,000.
Nowra Lion and former Lions district governor Ian Hughes said there were 740 Lions districts worldwide and he was confident that the more than $100,000 the Lions clubs of Shoalhaven had contributed to the cancer care centre would be a strong proposition to put to the Lions International judges.
“Each district can apply for up to $75,000 each year. Their projects and efforts are judged and if they believe we have done enough we could be eligible for that money,” Mr Hughes said.
