Club Projects
The Fargo Lions participate in many fundraising and community service projects throughout the community, as well as our club meetings and social events.
Fargo Lions - "We Serve."
Fundraising Activities:
Monday Night Football Raffle – For our major fundraiser, members are asked to sell raffle books that cover all 16 Monday Night Football games of the regular NFL season. Each $20.00 donation to the club grants the donor a book that has a 1 in 100 chance of winning a $50.00 prize for each of the Monday Night Football games in the season. For those of us familiar with a Super Bowl board you get the idea. It is a fun and easy fundraiser for the club and participants.
Traffic Control at the Bluestem Amphitheater - The Fargo Lions partners with Jade Presents to assist with the parking and exit traffic for the summer concert series. It's a fun way to raise money for the club and to see a concert in a beautiful outdoor amphitheater.
Community Service Projects:
Sight-4-Kids Vision Screening – At the heart of our Lions club mission, members partner with local schools at the start of each school year to provide basic vision screening for students. When finances prevent families from purchasing eye exxams of eyeglasses, Fargo Lions will help out. See our Contact page for information on this process.
Lions Conservancy Park – Following the flood in 1997, the Fargo Lions partnered with the Fargo Park District, Riverkeepers, NDSU and other groups to sponsor this natural park set in the green space along the Red River of the North.
