Lions Club International and all local Lions clubs share a common motto, "We Serve".
To serve the world and the communities it is part of, Lions must raise money. That money buys the goods and services used to fund our projects and support the community. The Lions have a unique fund raising philosophy. All monies raised from the public go back to the public. That means that no funds raised by the Lions from the general public or through donations from some outside sources can go into Lions Club administration.
Lions Club administration expenses are paid for by Lions Club dues and other internal events.
