CLUB PROJECTS

IN ADDITION TO MUCH APPRECIATED DONATIONS RECEIVED, THE WAYNESBORO LIONS CLUB MEMBERS HOLD FUNDRAISERS AND SERVICE PROJECTS THAT ENABLE US TO CONTINUE PROVIDING FINANCIAL AND HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE TO THOSE IN THE COMMUNITY AND TO THOSE AROUND THE GLOBE WHO ARE AFFECTED WHEN DISASTER STRIKES.

Please see our calendar for specific dates, times, and locations.

Broom Sales:

Lions club broom sales are back!  We have a standard size house broom and a heavier reinforced patio broom for sale.  Brooms are available at select Lions fundraisers, the Waynesboro Garden Center, or Brooks Auto Repair in Waynesboro.  Ask your friendly neighborhood Lion for more information or contact our broom sales coordinator:  Lion Phil Sandridge at 540-942-3406.

Christmas Tree Sales:

2024 UPDATE:  Unfortunately we are unable to offer Christmas trees for sale for the 2024 season.  We regret that this doesn't allow loyal customers to continue their tradition of purchasing a beautiful tree while also giving to community members who need help during the holidays.  Please watch for our spring, summer and fall chicken barbecue fundraisers so that you get a great meal while helping us help others. 

Eyeglass Recycling:

We've partnered with Walmart and Sam's Club to collect and recycle your used eyeglasses.  Just look for the collection boxes at Walmart and Sam's Club Vision Centers.  Drop your old eye glasses in the recycling box.  They may also be given to any Waynesboro Lions Club member.  We'll collect and clean the glasses and send them on to their next worthy recipients.  Recycled eyeglasses are provided to needy adults and children free of charge.  Please help us give the gift of sight!

Hearing Aid Recycling:

We're collecting hearing aids (in good condition) for reuse in the Waynesboro community.  The hearing aid will be professionally cleaned, reconditioned, and distributed to a person in need .  Please contact Lion Darla All (Sight & Hearing Chair)  if you would like to assist by donating a hearing aid.

LOV RAFFLE:  Lions of Virginia Foundation Raffle

Purchase a raffle ticket for a chance to win a grand prize of $10,000.  Two additional winners receive $500 prizes.  Tickets sales begin in October and end by February.  Winning tickets are drawn in May.  For just $1 per ticket you can give a holiday or office gift that truly gives back to the community.   By purchasing raffle tickets from a Waynesboro Lions Club member, you can help support a variety of service projects in Virginia.   Start a new holiday tradition at the office... exchange LOV raffle tickets! Contact us for tickets or more information.

Chicken Barbecue Fundraiser:

During the milder weather months, we hold a monthly chicken barbecue fundraiser, held at the corner of West Main Street and Lew DeWitt Blvd in Waynesboro.  Between 300 and 350 chicken halves are cooked on an open grill, then wrapped and sold.  Cooking begins early and sales start around 10:30 a.m., typically selling out by noon.

Shrimp Feast:

Let us do the cooking on a warm August night.  Enjoy all you can eat boiled shrimp and barbecue.  Be sure to save room for a delectable dessert!  Dinner festivities will be followed by a silent auction.   All of the proceeds from the night benefit Lions service projects.  If you are a business or individual, and you would like to donate an item for auction, please contact us.  Tickets can be purchased from a Waynesboro Lions Club member or by contacting us.
