A plea from the North Ridgeville Lions Club to help restock shelves at North Ridgeville Community Care resulted in a record amount of food donations . North Ridgeville Community Care has a food pantry but also offers wraparound services, including rental and utility assistance, clothing and household items, and an education fund that covers tuition and supplies like computers and textbooks. It provides support to hundreds of clients each month.
That predicament forced the Lions Club to move up its annual fall food drive, which included a competition between North Ridgeville City Schools and St. Peter School to see which building could collect the most items.Tonya Stillwell, the Lions Club's public relations chairperson, said this year's efforts brought in 9,140.80 lbs of food. Last year's total was 7,120.93 lbs.Stillwell said St. Peter School won the school competition for the third year in a row.
