Members of Tallahassee Lodge's Past Exalted Ruler Association transported used medical equipment stored at the lodge to Ability1st, the Center for Independent Living, in Tallahassee, Florida. Ability1st is a local organization that repurposes items for folks unable to purchase new equipment. The program is run almost entirely from donations. Included in the lodge donation were six wheelchairs, six walkers, four sets of crutches, six canes and a bedside commode. The donation was made Oct. 30, and by Nov. 2, two of the wheelchairs and one of the walkers had already been put back to use in the community.
