The Algonac Lions Club is in need of medical equipment, because the group receives and maintains medical equipment that is used by area residents. The equipment is provided free of charge for as long as the individual needs it. The Lions club supplies items like canes, crutches, hospital beds, shower chairs, walkers, wheelchairs, and more. Algonac Lions Club Secretary Rocky Gillis said, [the group is] “in need of wheelchairs and walkers with brakes and wheels,” but did say they have “plenty of hospital beds.” When asked what communities they served, Gillis explained that “the club does not limit what they do, they serve wherever there is a need,” as they don’t “ put a border on need.” Donated equipment can either be picked up or dropped off to the organization. Arrangement for equipment can be made by contacting Rocky through the group’s Facebook page, or calling 810-531-2416.
