From The Lions Den - We Serve the Community

(Page 7)
Submitted by Lion Anne Granberg
Last year the Foothills Lions Club donated over $80,000 to several surrounding community organizations and school projects. Lions support many of the student extra-curricular programs, activities, needed equipment and scholarships; fixtures and up-grading in community based facilities such as Health and Extended Care Centres, the Food Bank, Community Gardens and the list goes on and on. On the Lions International level, aid was sent to the Haiti disaster; adjustable eye glasses to a Third World Country and to the Guide Dogs Program and Clinic that serve the sight and hearing impaired people. Improving the quality of lives of the youth and adults for now and the future is what Lionism is all about.
The continuous dedication and commitment given by the club members in various capacities, reaching forward for a common purpose, is incredibly successful in helping the community and having enjoyment socially at the same time.
Can you imagine living in a community without a Lions Club? To achieve a healthy, strong and creative club, the keyword is Membership. More members means more services can be provided. Individuals in the area who would like to share their experiences, talent, fellowship and be involved in on-going projects and other services, please call – President Dave 403-933-4640 or Membership Chairman Charlotte 403-933-3688.
