Our Proud History

Since 1956 the 100 Mile House Lions Club has raised in excess of $500,000 that has been used to support our local community. We have been able to raise this money through the generous and unstinting support of the business and industrial community in and around 100 Mile House. Businesses and individuals have donated substantial amounts of both merchandise and money to our various projects. Every donation and purchase over the years has made it possible for us to contribute significantly to our community and we look forward to its continued support in the years and decades to come.
