These grants aid 1.4 million Lions world wide in humanitarian efforts too large for individual clubs or districts to fund alone.
The mission of humanitarian service is at the core of Lions Clubs International and Lions around the world are united in a common theme,” We Serve”. The Foundation’s goal of “Lions Helping Lions” furthers this ideal. LCIF grants support five distinct areas of service.
