Who We Are
The Inglis Yankeetown Lions are your friends and neighbors volunteering to help our two communities - our youth and their families, the visually impaired, and those Inglis Yankeetown residents who are in need of our help.
When it comes to meeting challenges, our response is simple: We serve. Our volunteer projects unite Lions around the world. And our work is unconditional. We aren't limited by continents or restricted to certain causes. Lions help wherever, whenever and however we can.
Our 46,000 clubs and 1.35 million members make us the world's largest service club organization.We're also one of the most effective. Our members do whatever is needed to help their local communities.
Ready to Help, In Our Communities or Worldwide Whenever a Lions club gets together, problems get smaller. And communities get better. That's because we help where help is needed – in our own communities and around the world – with unmatched integrity and energy.
