Chester Lions Donate to Annual Getaway

Community Hope, founded almost 30 years ago, has created a brighter future for those in the community disabled by mental illness.

In support of their effort, the Chester Lions Club has donated $3,500 to subsidize Community Hope’s Annual Getaway for the disabled in several Morris County residences.  The three day trip is the only opportunity for many of them to experience a holiday.

The organization creates a bright future for individuals recovering from mental illness and substance abuse by providing housing and services in a dignified, respectful and person-centered way.  Emphasizing wellness and recovery, the programs focus on helping individuals set goals and strive to meet them.  Residents attend rehabilitation programs, volunteer their time or secure employment.

The Chester Lions Club continues to provide much needed support for worthwhile organizations.  For further information, contact Phil Savell at 908 879 6543 or visit Chesterlionsclubnj.com.
