HEADS UP CLUB TREASURERS (& PRESIDENTS)!!
Starting the 2026-2027 Lion year
There is an amendment to the club suspension policy that is posted online, changing the 120-day suspension rule to 90 days. Automatic cancellation will be scheduled the second month following suspension.
 
So check the Portal for your Club’s dues statement and get it paid. You might also make a plan to check monthly for invoices from LCI so that nothing is missed. No one wants a club suspended for nonpayment.
 

From last month’s newsletter article –  Lions Clubs International issued semiannual dues invoices to every club on June 30, and they are payable now. If your club’s treasurer hasn’t logged into the MyLCI portal recently, this is the reminder to do it this week.  If your club’s treasurer has not created an account on the portal, that is the first step to completing this process.  The login is the email address that LCI has on file for each officer. If an email address has not been provided to your club secretary, you will NOT be able to create an account in the Lion Portal.

LCI no longer mails paper invoices. Your invoice exists only in the MyLCI portal. If you’re waiting on something to arrive by mail, it isn’t coming, and the clock on payment is running whether or not anyone has looked.

What to do – Log into MyLCI using your credentials. Your login will be the email address that LCI has on file for you. (If you have changed your email address, let your club secretary know so that it can be updated in LCI.)

  1. Navigate to your club’s account and click on the “Statements” tab to see
  2. Submit payment through the portal, or route the invoice to whoever handles your club’s payments if that isn’t the treasurer directly.
  3. Unpaid dues can affect your club’s standing with LCI and create complications for member transactions, so don’t let this sit unchecked because no envelope showed up.
