Serving the communities of Washington and Chocowinity
The Washington Evening Lions Club was chartered in 2009. Our members are very different in many ways, but we share a core belief - our community is what we make it. That is because we help where help is needed. In short, "We Serve".
Money raised goes back into the communities we serve through:
- Aid to Visually Impaired Persons (VIPs)
- Sponsorship of vision screening events for early detection of vision problems
- Partnership with other area Lions Clubs to raise awareness of the needs of persons with vision and hearing impairments
- Volunteerism to help meet identified needs brought to our attention and within our scope of expertise for assistance
Additional goals for assistance:
- Create and award a scholarship to help VIPs or the children of VIPs attend a secondary educational or vocational program
- Raise enough money for one of our local VIPs to receive a leader dog
- Work with area youth groups to identify and complete community-wide service projects
