Fillmore Lions Club would like to thank the community for supporting last Saturday’s Enchilada Dinner fundraiser. They made 500 to go dinners to help raise funds for high school senior scholarships that’ll be awarded this spring.
There were countless volunteers such as One Step a la Vez teens and staff, Fillmore Boy Scout Troop 406, Sespe 4H, Fillmore FFA, and fellow Lions from Ventura. Lions would also like to thank local businesses such as Fillmore’s El Pescador, Estrella Market, Beylik Farms, Salvation Army of Ventura, and Red Engine Brewery. Lions intend to carry on this community event every year, as so many Fillmorites look forward to the delicious dinner. Lastly and very importantly, there was no food wasted. At the end of the event Fillmore Lions was able to donate more than 250 enchilada meals to Spirit of Santa Paula, our local homeless shelter. They do great work and rely solely on donations. It felt great to provide so much food for a worthy organization.
