Lions are an international network of 1.3
million men and women in 202 countries and geographic areas who work together to answer
the needs that challenge communities around the world.
Known for working
to end
preventable blindness, Lions participate in a vast variety of projects important to
their communities. These projects range from cleaning up local parks to providing supplies
to victims of natural
disasters.
Beginning in 1917, the
association of Lions clubs has provided millions of people with the opportunity to give
something back to their communities.
As Virginia Lions, we volunteer our time
and efforts to
our
humanitarian causes throughout our district and the State of Virginia.
By conducting
service projects and raising funds, we
strive to help to meet the need - to meet the need wherever it exists: locally
or internationally throughout the world community. The Lions' motto is
We Serve."
Our association was
founded in Chicago, Illinois in
1917.
Lions Clubs International has grown to be the world's largest service organization with
more than 1.4 million members belonging to local clubs in most countries of the world. The
headquarters of Lions Clubs International is in Oak Brook, Illinois. The international
association is governed by a board of directors, which is elected annually at the
International convention.
Lions speak many
different languages and profess many religious and political beliefs; however, they all
subscribe to common objectives and ethical principles. In District 24D who we
