Lions Clubs International is a global network of over 1.4 million volunteers who are dedicated to serving their communities. They work on a wide range of projects, but some of their most well-known services include:

 

Vision Services

  • Vision screenings: Lions clubs provide free vision screenings to people of all ages, especially children. This helps to identify and treat vision problems early on, before they can lead to permanent vision loss.
  • Eyeglasses and hearing aids: Lions clubs collect and distribute used eyeglasses and hearing aids to people in need. This helps to improve the quality of life for people who cannot afford to buy new glasses or hearing aids.

 

Lions Eye Banks: Lions Clubs operate eye banks that collect, store, and distribute corneas and other eye tissue for transplantation. This helps to restore sight to people who have lost their vision due to disease or injury.

 

Youth:

Leo Clubs: Leo Clubs are for young people aged 12-18 who want to make a difference in their communities. Leos participate in a variety of service projects, such as volunteering at local shelters, cleaning up parks, and raising money for charities.

  • Youth exchange programs: Lions Clubs sponsor youth exchange programs that allow young people to travel to other countries and learn about different cultures. This helps to promote understanding and tolerance between people from different backgrounds.

 

Disaster relief:

  • Lions Clubs are always on the front lines of disaster relief efforts. They provide food, shelter, and medical supplies to people who have been affected by natural disasters.

 

Humanitarian aid:

  • Lions Clubs provide humanitarian aid to people in need around the world. They work on projects such as building schools and hospitals, providing clean water and sanitation, and fighting hunger and poverty.

 

Diabetes:

  • Lions Clubs are also committed to fighting diabetes. They provide education and awareness programs, as well as support for people who are living with diabetes.

 

In addition to these specific services, Lions Clubs also support a variety of other community projects. They are always looking for new ways to make a difference in the world, and they welcome volunteers from all walks of life.
