On Jan. 14, 2015, the Maple City Lions Club helped the LaPorte Salvation Army pack Back Packs for Kids for distribution to children in the LaPorte public school system. This project enables needy kids to have nourishing food on weekends when school is not in session.
Lions who helped with this very worthwhile project were Lisa Pierzakowski, Mike Pierzakowski, Dr. Dennis Sommer, Bob Strieter, Eric Sommer, Bethany Irwin of the Salvation Army, Larry Gattorna, and DG Glen Swanson.
