Lions Clubs International – 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.
The World's Largest Service Club Organization
Our 46,000 clubs and 1.35 million members make us the world's largest service club organization. We're also one of the most effective. Our members do whatever is needed to help their local communities. Everywhere we work, we make friends. With children who need eyeglasses, with seniors who don’t have enough to eat and with people we may never meet.

organization. We have 1.35 million members in more than 46,000 clubs worldwide.
Lions are everywhere.We're men and women who are active in community
projects in more than 207 countries and geographic areas.
Lions have a dynamic history. Founded in 1917, we are best known for
fighting blindness –it's part of our history as well as our work today. But we
also perform volunteer work for many different kinds of community projects –
including caring for the environment, feeding the hungry and aiding seniors and the disabled.
Local Community Projects
Lions are active.Our motto is "We Serve." Lions are part of a global
service network, doing whatever is necessary to help our local communities.
Lions give sight. By conducting vision screenings, equipping hospitals and
clinics, distributing medicine and raising awareness of eye disease, Lions work
toward their mission of providing vision for all. We have extended our
commitment to sight conservation through countless local community projects and through our international SightFirst Program, which works to eradicate
blindness.
Lions serve youth. Our community projects often support local children and schools through scholarships, recreation and mentoring. Internationally, we offer many programs, including the Peace Poster Contest, Youth Camps and Exchange and Lions Quest.
And our Leo Program provides personal development through youth volunteer opportunities. There are approximately 144,000 Leos and 5,700 Leo clubs in more than 140 countries worldwide.
Lions award grants.Since 1968, the Lions Clubs International
Foundation has awarded more than US$700 million in grants to support Lions
humanitarian community projects around the world. Together, our Foundation and Lions are helping communities followingnatural disasters by providing for immediate needs such as food, water, clothing and medical supplies – and aiding in long-term reconstruction.
