A Season of Giving at The Forest Country Club

The holiday season at The Forest Country Club in Fort Myers, Florida, has been a heartwarming display of generosity and community spirit. Our incredible members have once again shown their commitment to making a difference in the lives of those in need, particularly children in Lee County.

Over 1,000 Gifts for Lee County Children

Thanks to the overwhelming support of our members, we've achieved a remarkable milestone: donating over 1,000 Christmas gifts, including bikes and tablets, to 235 children in Lee County through the Salvation Army Angel Tree Program. This act of kindness ensures that these children experience the joy and wonder of the holiday season.

Gratitude to Our Dedicated Members and Supporters

A special shoutout is deserved for our 18 members who dedicated their time and effort to transport these gifts. Their commitment and hard work played a crucial role in bringing smiles to so many faces. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to the Swanbeck Team and Jeff Rush for their amazing support, proving that when we come together, we can make a significant impact.
