Florence, AZ, July 15, 2022—The Florence Copper Community Foundation (“Foundation”) has awarded the Florence Lions Club a $1000 grant.

Foundation board members Dodi Freeman, Lorri Rodriguez, and Sophie Dessart presented the check to the Lions Club during a Greater Florence Chamber of Commerce networking event held on July 7, 2022.

The grant will support various Lions Club programs in Florence, including youth eye exams, a local food bank on the fourth Friday of each month, highway cleanups, and Christmas sponsorships of families in need, among others.
