Going hungry is an unfortunate reality for many people in Fairfax County. According to statistics from the national hunger awareness organization Feeding America, more than 76,000 residents in the Fairfax County area are “food insecure,” meaning they do not know where their next meal will come from.

That’s what we Lions do to meet a need within our community – WE SERVE!!
