Ready to Help, 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.
Our 45,000 clubs and more than 1.3 million members make us the world's largest service club organization.
We're also one of the most effective. We get the job done.
Everywhere we work, we make friends. With children who need schoolbooks, with seniors who need transportation and with people we may never meet.
Talented, dedicated volunteer leaders from around the world lead us. And, the Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF), which helps to fund Lions humanitarian projects, supports us.
Origin
Lionism began in the United States on June 17, 1917, when Melvin Jones asked a simple question. What if people put their talents to work improving their communities? Helen Keller challenged the Lions at their convention in 1925 when she asked them to take up her cause and become her “Knights of the Blind.” These have been OUR main concerns ever since.
