Who are the Lions?
• Lions is, first and foremost, a community-oriented service organization. We actively support the social welfare of our community and strengthen our society’s values through our projects and outreach.
• Lions members have a wide variety of political perspectives. While the Lions constitution prohibits partisan political activities within the club, each club provides a forum for the free and open discussion of public affairs.
• Lions are men and women of all religions, nationalities, races, and creeds who work in service together, building rapport and strengthening the bonds of friendship.
• Lions Clubs sponsor more Boy Scout troops than any other organization. We participate in many youth programs and projects in the U.S. and abroad.
• Lions are generous. Over the years, in good times and bad, thousands of less fortunate people have been the recipients of the generosity of Lions. Wherever human suffering has been found, Lions responded generously with open hearts.
• Lions provide recreational opportunities for thousands of children via Little League programs and many other activities designed to train the minds and bodies of our youth.
• Lions adhere to the age-old philosophy of “Love Thy Neighbor “in all major religions. This doctrine motivates Lions’ activities, resulting in completed projects that benefit thousands.
• Lions help the blind.
