Traditional Standing Projects
*"Lions in Action!"
What does "Lions in Action" mean?
Environmental and Humanity Service Project. The La Habra Host Lions Club extends an open invitation for community members to partner with The La Habra Host Lions to help people in need. Basically this project is a collaborative project between the City of La Habra which identifies La Habra people who are disabled, seniors or military Veterans who need help getting their property to code.
Sometimes illness or economic challenge can impact the ability to maintain their home and code enforcement becomes involved. If it is determined that an individual falls within the Lions criteria, the city will notify our coordinator and in turn the coordinator will meet with the individual to determine how we can help.
The “Lions in Action” work party try and meet each 4th Saturday of the month at 8 am at El Centro/Lions Park, tools are gathered, assignments are given and we come together for 4 hours, or less if we finish to help an individual get to code, restore morale and curve anxiety of helplessness. Most times when we come on the scene, neighbors are giving thumbs up, bringing over refreshments and rolling up their sleeves to help out. Community members are invited to help out. “This is a great way to see how the Lions help people in their community, "We Serve!” Lion Marty Matamoros, Lions in Action Chair. (562) 857-6091.
