The Motto of all Lions Clubs is "We Serve."

Ever since Helen Keller, at the Lions Clubs International convention held in 1925 at Cedar Point, challenged the Lions to become her “Knights of the blind in the crusade against darkness” sight conservation has been the primary focus of Lions Clubs.

The Mission of the Troy Lions Club is to provide voluntary services, for humanitarian needs, with a core emphasis on vision health

Lions Club International has established five main areas of service: Vision, Hunger Insecurity, Environment, Pediatric Cancer, and Diabetes.
