AIKEN MID-DAY LIONS CLUB - AIKEN, SOUTH CAROLINA 

The Aiken Mid-Day Lions Club was chartered in April of 1995 by the Aiken Lions Club. Since that time, we have grown to become one of South Carolina's most active and involved clubs.

Through proceeds from our many fundraisers, we address needs on local, state, national and even international levels. Our support goes beyond the financial, offering our time and talents in many hands-on ways.  We meet the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of every month beginning at 12:30 pm and conclude promptly at 1:30 pm.  Currently, we are doing virtual meetings due the COVID-19 pandemic. 

We have fun, too!! In addition to working together in service to others, our annual Holiday Party and other social events throughout the year are a great way to become better acquainted and will be resumed once the pandemic is over.

If you want to learn about the Aiken Mid-Day Lions or donate to our cause, feel free to contact us via email at aikenmiddaylions@gmail.com.  We would love to hear from you.
