About the Lions Club
Lions are more than 1.3 million strong ... men and women ... young and old. You
will find us in more than 196 geographical areas from the hinterlands of Australia
and Brazil to thriving urban centers like New York City and Milan. We speak many
languages and wary in nature and customs.

We share a common spirit. Since our beginning in 1917, we have been united in a
single cause: helping those less fortunate. We tackling the tough problems like
blindness and drug abuse as well as diabetes awareness and finding help and
training for the deaf, disabled, underprivileged and the elderly. In fact whatever
the community needs to make life better, we're there to help.

We are the youngest major social service organization, yet we have grown to be
the world's largest. We are succeeding because we have embraced all those
committed to building a brighter future for the world and themselves.

And, with a new generation of enlightened members, Lions clubs are working
smarter and faster than ever before.

We are the Lions ... and, we serve.
