The Landrum Lions Club will conduct its annual Christmas Spirit Fund to assist those in need in the local area.    

Each December, businesses and individuals are asked to make financial donations to this fund to support the projects at Operation Hope in Landrum. All funds raised will be given to Operation Hope to assist those who are in need during the Christmas and holiday season.  

President Gerald McCool shares that the needs of those who are experiencing hardships during the Holiday season are many.    

“The Landrum Lions Club members feel that now is the time that we can step forward to provide assistance to these individuals,” McCool said. “We should be thankful for the many blessings we have and for the opportunity to assist Operation Hope as they provide support to the needy. We encourage all citizens to participate.”

Those interested in learning more may call club treasurer Bob Walker at 864-457-3328. Donations can be made payable to Landrum Lions Club and mailed to P.O. Box 262, Landrum, SC 29356; or delivered to Landrum Insurance Agency, 104 S. Shamrock Ave., Landrum.
