Breast Cancer Survivors’ Breakfast.
On October 27th, 2018 the Lions Club of Tropical Gardens hosted a survivors’ breakfast at Governor’s Ballroom, Kimpton Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman.

World Food Day
On the 16th October, 2018 World Food Day was commemorated: fighting against global hunger, but recognising how far we still have to go. Food is a basic daily necessity and no one should go hungry. By way of example, did you know that each of us consumes over 15,000 gallons of water during our lifetime and that our water is increasingly contaminated with plastics, heavy metals and even bacteria? We all can do our part and contribute to ending hungry. Take care of mother earth

Kaibo/North Side: The Kaibo/North Side staging of the Brenda Tibbets-Lund Breast Cancer 5K Walk/Run took place on the 6th October, 2018. Oh! what a morning to remember. As the walkers and runners got into place, the heavens opened with raindrops showering blessings on those assembled to support the event.

World Mental Health Day
World Mental Health Day, was celebrated on 10th October, 2018. We are our brother’s/sister’s keeper. Just three words: “How are you?” Mental health is still stigmatized and those struggling can feel isolated and alone. Just as physical health requires proper nutrition, exercise, movement and maintenance on a daily basis, our mental and emotional health too requires adequate nurturing, attention, and support. We place so much emphasis on our physical health and fitness, our ex

Breast Cancer Awareness Meetings and Clinics
Imagine being told that you have cancer: coming to terms with this news can be overwhelming, confusing and scary. There is still a lot to learn and making sure that a person with cancer is able to access the right support and accurate, user-friendly information is important. Recognising the importance of empowering the community with accurate information and support, the Lions Club of Tropical Gardens stages district awareness meetings and clinics throughout the month of Octo
