Sitting in that room, my body, mind and spirit was arrested as I heard about the great service these like-minded people do in their communities,\u201d says Jacobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFast track to 2021 when the Lions Club of Mitchell\u2019s Plain voted me in as president for the fiscal year 2021-22. We can reflect on a year where our Club has continued to serve our communities to alleviate the ongoing plight of hunger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have been privileged to continue great projects such as our Baby Box project to MOU\u2019s (maternity obstetric unit) and Mitchell\u2019s Plain District hospital \u2013 where we deliver a \u2018starter pack of baby necessities\u2019 to Mom\u2019s in need.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another of the club\u2019s recent activities was the sight screening at primary school level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am humbled that my club saw it fit to vote me into the role of president again. We look forward to another year of service within our communities and living up to the saying \u2018where there\u2019s a need, there\u2019s a Lion\u2019,\u201d she says. \u201cMy desire for our club in this new fiscal year is not that we do service for recognition, but instead, service worthy of recognition.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She continues: \u201cThere is no better reward than giving back to someone who cannot do anything for you in return. I would encourage anyone who has a heart beat to give back to contact us, whether to volunteer, sign up as a member or to donate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To
