Not sure what a LION is, or does? I think the following information
will give you a good idea.
The motto of every Lions Club is "WE SERVE".
Whether helping the blind or hearing impaired...conducting drug or
diabetes awareness campaigns...providing recreational opportunities
for the handicapped...sponsoring basic research into the causes and
treatment of blindness...providing children with sports equipment or just
a place to play...or raising the funds to make it all possible, service
always comes first for a Lion. That is why Lions Clubs International is
not only the largest, but the most active service club organization in the
world with over 1.4 million members.
LIONS ARE people who have decided to give something back to their
communities, who are dedicated to finding people in need, and who
meet those needs in an efficient but caring way.
LIONS ARE also committed to solving major, worldwide health and
social problems, and realize that solutions are possible when every
Lions Club does its share.
LIONS ARE people who cherish the friendship and fellowship of their
own Club, but who also feel a close kinship with fellow Lions in more
than 180 countries and areas throughout the world.
LIONS ARE patriotic, giving allegiance to their country, while
recognizing that all people must one day learn to live in peace.
LIONS ARE dedicated to maintaining the highest ethical and moral
standards in their Club - and in their personal lives.
LIONS ARE serious about their commitment to humanitarian service,
but do not mind having a little fun along the way.
LIONS ARE .... people just like YOU. You can make a difference in
your community and the world.
WE ARE NOT a political organization, yet amoung our members will
be found leaders of all political parties and factions. Our constitution
prohibits our activities to be conducted in a partisan political way.
WE ARE NOT a social club, yet we are directed to take an active
interest in the social welfare of our various communities.
WE ARE NOT a fraternal organization, yet we have found that people of
all faiths, all religions, all nationalities, all races can come together in
an aura of mutual understanding.
WE ARE NOT a religious body, yet the precepts we live by are familiar
to the doctrines of the worlds spiritual bodies, and the motivation of our
activities is deeply rooted on the age-old philosophy of "Love Thy
Neighbor", found in some form or another in the dogmas of all
religions.
Please consider joining us and help in our good works.
