LM Lions Help Support Pediatric Cancer Foundation In A Big Way

LARCHMONT/MAMARONECK, NY — A great dinner can sometimes do good beyond the table shared with loved ones.

The Larchmont-Mamaroneck Lions recently joined forces with Sedona Taphouse for the restaurant's Mondays Dine Out for Charity in support of the Pediatric Cancer Foundation (PCF). Sedona dedicates a full month of Mondays every year in support of local charities and service groups.

During the month of February, Sedona raised $696, with an additional $1500 raised from related online donations. Combined with the Lions' support, nearly $3,000 was raised for PCF.
