Our Motto:
“We Serve”;
Our
Goal:
“Create and Foster a Spirit of Understanding Among the Peoples
of the World...”
Who Are
Lions:
We are rich in heritage and pride. We are proud that our
organization is close to a century old, and that it has a
distinguished history of doing good works for the world. Local
communities respect and trust their clubs, both because those
clubs are made up of neighbors and friends who have a long
record of support, and because of the Lions Clubs International
name and legacy.
We serve
where we live:
We are ready whenever and however our communities need us.
We are
global:
We are committed to pitching in with resources wherever we are
needed in the world.
We give 100
percent:
We cover all costs from our own dues, ensuring that all donated
funds go to the causes. Transparency and accountability operate
at every level; in fact, The Financial Times has ranked Lions
Clubs International Foundation the “best among non-government
organizations worldwide with which to work. ”We are
dedicated to sight– and more. Since Helen Keller 1n 1925
challenged the Lions to be “knights of the blind in the crusade
against darkness.” Lions have fulfilled the mission of
addressing vision health and promoting research for solutions to
vision disease.
Today:
Lions Clubs work on global initiatives for youth, health,
disaster relief and others that affect local communities
everywhere.
