Come see what Lionism is all about

By Tony Speziale, President of Saugus Lions Club

The Saugus Lions Club kicks off its 94th year as a nonprofit, public serving organization. For years, Lions clubs have devoted their efforts in ending blindness and serving the community through scholarships, toy drives, the peace poster and more.

Since 1917, Lions clubs have offered people the opportunity to give something back to their communities. From involving members in projects as local as cleaning up an area park or as far-reaching as bringing sight to the world’s blind, Lions clubs have always embraced those committed to building a brighter future for their community.

The Lions Club International is the largest and most effective community service organization in the world. We have over 1.4 million members in more than 46,000 clubs in roughly 199 countries and areas of the world. Our motto best describes our mission: “We Serve”. Lions Club International is a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to helping people in need, in both the local community as well as throughout the world. At present, our major international service commitment is SightFirst: Lions Conquering Blindness, which has an aim to eliminate preventable and reversible blindness around the world.

Come see what Lionism is all about. We meet every 1st & 3rd Wednesday at Polcari’s starting at 6 p.m.

We’d like to see you there!!
