About Lions International And Our Goals
The Lions
organization was founded in Chicago, Illinois in 1917 by Melvin Jones.
At the present time there are over 1,500,000 members in more than 44,500
clubs in over 186 countries and geographical areas.
Lions Clubs
International serves people throughout the world. Globally, Lions
clubs are known for their commitment to blindness prevention. They
support Leader
Dogs for the blind in Rochester, Michigan. This program provides guide
dogs to visually impaired people, FREE OF CHARGE! Second
only to the Lions' devotion to aiding the blind and visually impaired is a
dedication to serving young people. The Lions-Quest program
teaches Skills for
Adolescence and
targets character development, alcohol and drug prevention,
service-learning, academic achievement, violence prevention, and much
more.
ALL MONIES raised
by Lions Clubs goes back into the communities to support international and
local programs. Locally, the biggest fund raising project of the Holmen
Lions Club is their Car Show and Parade in August. This is run in
conjunction with Corn Fest. Not
One Dime of any money raised goes into administration expenses, it is all
given back to worthy causes.
