Valparaiso - In a heartwarming display of community collaboration and support, members of Porter Lodge 137 joined forces with the local chapter of Job's Daughters for a special corn sale event at the annual Porter Fair. This delightful initiative not only treated fair-goers to delicious roasted corn but also raised funds for meaningful charitable causes that both organizations hold close to their hearts.

The event, held at the lodge's premises, drew a significant number of volunteers, donors, and supporters, all uniting behind the noble cause of saving lives through blood donation.

Volunteers from Porter Lodge 137 worked tirelessly to ensure the smooth running of the event, from setting up donation stations to providing refreshments for donors. Their dedication and commitment were evident throughout the two days.

The community's response was overwhelming, with people from various backgrounds coming forward to donate blood. Their generosity and eagerness to contribute to the well-being of others highlighted the spirit of compassion and unity that characterizes our community.

"We are thrilled with the turnout and the support we received from the community," said one of the organizers of this humanitarian event. "Every donation we collected has the potential to save lives, and we are grateful to everyone who participated."

The blood drive not only provided a crucial resource for hospitals and patients but also served as a reminder of the importance of giving back to the community. It stood as a testament to the power of collective action in making a positive impact on the lives of others.
