Membership is open to all people of the community in good standing. Clubs may either provide service or raise money for their community, with 100% of funds donated by the public through fundraising are directed to the project for which they are intended. As a member of Lions Australia you will experience a number of personal benefits including leadership skills, a sense of self-worth and purpose, business skills, networking opportunities and lifelong friendships.
What we do: Lions Australia has a proud history of achievement in Disaster and Emergency Relief, Medical Research and Community Service. We were at the coalface for Cyclone Tracy, the Black Saturday bushfires and the Queensland floods. We were involved with the development of the bionic ear and the cervical cancer vaccine Gardisil. We also inspired a young Fred Hollows and continue to provide funding for a range of other research initiatives involving diabetes and autism. We assist with local community fundraising for special causes and help with development and building of local parks, community venues and sporting centers.
Meetings range from twice a month to every three weeks at a local venue in Katherine, meet new people, share your views and passion for helping and healing society and it’s people in any way you can with the support of your local Lions Club and its members. To join, please call Jill on 0400 832 092.
