Help the Lions make Good Friday special

The Lions Club of Bacchus Marsh is gearing up for a big Good Friday Appeal, and is calling on the community to join its team of enthusiastic volunteers.

The Lions are calling on all helpers and supporters to lend a hand, whether it’s in the days leading up to Good Friday or on the day itself on March 29.

Volunteers can arrive at the Bacchus Marsh Fire Station from 9am onwards to register. Every volunteer will receive a personalised name tag, a high-visibility vest, and a collection can to help make their impact.

Leading up to the big day, keep an eye out for our Lions Club members rattling collection cans

outside local shops.You can also show your support by donating at participating businesses displaying the purple Good Friday Appeal cans.

Bacchus Marsh Lions Club Good Friday Appeal area manager David Atterbury said it’s time to mark your calendars and be part of something truly

special.

“Let’s come together to make a difference and set a new record in 2024. Your spare time can make a world of difference, and we’re eager to have you on board,” he said.

“Let’s make this Good Friday unforgettable – join us in spreading joy and making a difference in the lives of children in need.”

On Good Friday itself donations can be made at the Bacchus Marsh Fire Station. For donations of $2 or more you’ll receive a receipt for taxation purposes. Digital donations can also be made via QR Code.

For information or to volunteer, contact the club via email or Mr Atterbury via mobile.
