WHAT DO LIONS CLUBS DO?
Lions move to make a difference locally and globally. Lions are best known for their efforts
to eradicate preventable blindness, but also participate in many other kinds of projects,
including assisting those in need, sponsoring international exchanges for young people,
providing supplies to victims of natural disasters and bringing clean drinking water
to remote villages. Whenever a Lions club gets together, problems get smaller and communities
get better.
WHY JOIN A LIONS CLUB?
As a Lion, you will have the opportunity to help others, meet new people and use your
talents to make a real impact. You will acquire new skills, meet challenges headon,
cultivate lasting friendships, grow personally and have fun at the same time.
