The Light-A-Light tree on the Marlboro County Courthouse Square has been sponsored by The Pilot Club of Bennettsville for the past 50 years (since 1973).
Although the Pilot is no longer handling Lifeline, they are working on a new project to provide safety and peace of mind to families for “at risk” individuals who are prone to the life-threatening behavior of wandering.
More details regarding Project Lifesaver will be provided soon.
Although Christmas is over, people can still donate. People are invited to honor loved ones and friends by contributing to the Pilot Club of Bennettsville Foundation as memorials ($5 per person), living tributes ($5 per person), or donations (minimum $5).
Acknowledgments will be sent to the name and address provided. Please complete the form or list the information about the people you want to honor and send it with your check to Pilot Club of Bennettsville Foundation, P.O. Box 1659 Bennettsville, SC 29512.
For additional information, call or text Vivian Lee at 843-439-1771.
