The Ashgrove/The Gap Lions Club is bringing the community together for a charity dinner at Ashgrove Golf Club on Saturday, 15 March 2025, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. The event aims to raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis Queensland.
A History of Community Support
The Ashgrove/The Gap Lions Club has a long history supporting local causes. Originally established as separate clubs in the 1960s, they merged in 2007. Today, the club continues its work more effectively. It has organised numerous fundraising efforts, including charity events, raffles, and community initiatives. The upcoming Lions and Roses Charity Dinner will continue this legacy.
Cystic Fibrosis: A Lifelong Challenge
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition that causes a thick mucus buildup in the lungs, airways, and digestive system. People with CF need constant medical care and physiotherapy, which can be exhausting and life-altering. There is no cure, so ongoing support, treatment, and research funding are essential.
For over 60 years, Cystic Fibrosis Queensland has supported individuals and families affected by CF. As a not-for-profit organisation, they raise awareness, improve access to treatment, and enhance the quality of life for those living with this challenging condition.
A Night of Entertainment and Giving Back
The Lions and Roses Charity Dinner will feature a live entertainment program, a roast meal, and a chance to win prizes through raffles. Guests will also hear from inspirational speakers telling stories of resilience and hope.
The dress code for the event is “something special.” Attendees are urged to embrace the evening with a spirit of celebration and generosity.
Community Commitment and Future Support
The event’s proceeds will directly support Cystic Fibrosis Queensland’s programs and initiatives. Every dollar ensures individuals receive the support they need. By hosting fundraising events like this, the Ashgrove/The Gap Lions Club continues to strengthen its impact on local causes and reinforce its dedication to charitable service.
With an RSVP deadline of 8 March, the club encourages community members to book early to secure a spot at this meaningful fundraising event. For further details, interested individuals can contact Jennie Jackson at 0413 308 320.
