Word-of-mouth Lion Ambassador:

Not sure what to say when asked, "what do Lions do"?

1. Lions are men and women dedicated to serving those in need, whether in their own community or around the world.

2. Our global mission of sight preservation makes us unique among service organizations.

3. Lions provide many leadership development opportunities for members.

Recruit spouses and family members to join our club.  Ask new businesses and new members of our community to become Lions.
