Our Bylaws
About Us
Northeast Tarrant Lions Club was officially chartered in October 2011. Our fundraising arm, Northeast Tarrant Lions Charities, is a 501(c)(3) organization and allows us to move ahead with fund-raising and service to our community.
We support the Texas Lions Camp which provides free camping each summer to over 1500 children with over 150 different types of disabilities including blindness, diabetes, and Down Syndrome. We contribute to a number of sight-related organizations including Leader Dogs for the Blind, Lighthouse for the Blind, the Lions Organ and Eye Bank, and World Services for the Blind.
We collect used eyeglasses for recycling. These glasses have allowed people in many remote parts of the world to see again, or, perhaps, for the first time. We also offer free eyeglasses to HEB students who cannot afford them.
The club supports the Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD Food Bank which helps many struggling families have food on the table after school hours and on weekends. We contribute to an emergency housing service which works to find temporary housing for those who have lost their place to live. And we work with and through the 6Stones Ministries to provide additional help for HEB families in need.
Each year we offer scholarships for graduating seniors at high schools in the HEB district.
In cooperation with other area Lions clubs, we provide vision screening to children and adults throughout Tarrant County. If your organization has an upcoming event where Lions might conduct free screenings, call 817-371-7321 for more information.
