Meetings

Time flies.  It has been 7 years ago that a group of four former lions members got together to try to charter a new Lions Club.  I was fortunate and honored to be noiminated as the Charter President, and be given the task to bring such a wonderful group of fine men and women together.  On April 17, 2007, The Vancouver Diamond Lions Club was born with one hundred and forteen charter members, and become members of The International Association of Lions Clubs, the world's largest service club organnization.

Seven year has passed.  Vancouver Diamond Lions have been striving to fulfill the objectives of lionism and promote the spirit of WE SERVE.  Our Committment to caring of and assisting those who are less fortunate help build a brighter future for our community.  Under the leadership of seven past presidents, we have raised close to a mllion dollars for various charities, disastrous reliefs, and scholarships.  We have also twinned with 2 clubs internationally, they are The Guangdong LingNan Lions Club from district 381 and the Lions Club Diamond Timisoara from district 124 in Romania.  VDLC have also sponsored two new Clubs, a Vancouver Diamond Campus Lions Club and Vancouver Diamond Millenial Lions Club.  I am proud to be associated with our "junior divisions" as well and I am sure both clubs can learn and share experiences from each other.

In the year 2013-2014, we are fortunate to become the home club of the MD19 Zone A7 Zone Chair, Clara Chow.  She has put our club on the map of the Multiple District 19 by being awarded the District's Lion of the Year.  Her committment to serve and her hard work is a role model for all.  We are also set to welcome another VDLC member, our IPP Alex Wong, to become the 205-2016 MD19 Zone A7 Zone Chair.  I am proud of our officers and members for their committment and dedication to better our community.

i would like to invite you all in welcoming and supporting our 2014-2015 President Cheryl Kwok. Let's all continue to serve our community and serve mankind in the best way we can, in whatever way we can, whenever and as long as we can
