To close out our incredible Centennial Celebration in style, we’re waiving entrance fees for new members who join between June 7 and June 30! For more than 100 years, we’ve delivered hope and change to the world. Now, as we prepare for an innovative second century of service, there has never been a more exciting time become a Lion, and we want to make it as easy as possible for new members to join us.

So how does it work?

• Invite family and friends to join your club between June 7 and June 30.
• Report your new member to Lions International by 11:59 p.m. CDT on Saturday, June 30.
• Save money when your club billing automatically reflects this special promotion.
• Earn a Centennial Sponsor Pin for inviting a new member, and wear it with pride.

This is a limited offer that does not apply to new members added prior to June 7 or after June 30, 2018. No exceptions will be approved. Charter and transfer charter fees do not qualify for this special waiver. If you have any questions, please contact membershipdev@lionsclubs.org.

Invite your family and friends to join the greatest service organization in the world as we write the history of our second century together.

Club Activity Reports, You, and Lions International

LCI Forward provides a strategic framework to help clubs to strive for excellence. This plan was developed by the Long Range Planning Committee of the International Board of Directors and guided by the association’s vision statement “To be the global leader in community and humanitarian service”.

It is a platform for action that will help your club develop priorities to significantly expand humanitarian service, improve current operations, and pursue new ways to unite people in Lions’ service. LCI can give us this vision, but it takes application at the club level to make the vision a reality.

The primary goal is to improve the lives of at least 200 million per year by FY 2020-21
through expanded humanitarian service – tripling of our service – as measured through the Service Activity Report system. This is important to Lions because activities reported by clubs increase the ability of Lions to forge strategic partnerships with other organizations. This will accomplish more for those in need all around the world and in your back yard!

Dear Lion Leaders:

I would like to personally invite you to attend the Global Action Team’s upcoming service webinar! This event will focus on the importance of electing a Club Service Chairperson and the value of reporting your service.

RSVP TO THIS EXCITING WEBINAR NOW! 

Join us on Tuesday, March 27, 2018 at 12:00 p.m. Central Standard Time for “The Value of Service.” This webinar will offer Lions a better understanding of why every service project counts and why reporting these projects matters to Lions worldwide. Learn about the benefits of electing a Club Service Chairperson to lead your club in innovative service opportunities.

To kick off Lions Clubs International’s next century, we are putting service at the forefront of our organization. With the help of the newly established Global Service Team, Lions everywhere can learn about our global causes and implement creative and hands-on service projects that align with these causes.

We look forward to discussing the value of service with you.

Sincerely, PID Dr. Eugene Spiess, Constitutional Area 1 GST Leader

Help your Club receive recognition as well as the District and Lions International by reporting your Club’s major accomplishment(s) NOW for the 2015-26, 2016-17 and 2017-18 (our current) Lionistic years.

Please briefly answer the following questions by emailing jnleggate@yahoo.com or responding to this post.  Only one accomplishment is needed, but more are welcome. If more information is needed you will be contacted.

• What is your most significant Centennial achievement (July 2014 – June 2018)?
• Describe the achievement (for example, the number of people served, the service impact, organizational growth achieved, and/or visibility in the community).
• Are there photos or video of this achievement? (… and who could provide them?)

Service has been the cornerstone of Lions’ Centennial celebration, and, for 50 years, Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF) has been supporting that service. In addition to Lions’ 100^th Anniversary, we’re celebrating another defining milestone: LCIF’s 50^th Anniversary. Visit LCIF50.org today to find great videos and stories, and to enter the monthly Together We Can Contest. Lucky Lions from around the globe have a chance to win an exclusive LCIF 50^th Anniversary medal and be recognized at our International Convention in Las Vegas. Enter today!
