Lions are members of community service clubs,
dedicated to the idea that
the men and women
who live in a community are in the best position
to know who needs help and why. More than 44,500
strong,
these local clubs are part of the world's
largest such organization,
with 1.4 million members
serving in more than 180 countries and areas.
The
association is both non-political and non-sectarian.
Lions are
now best known for their sight-related
programs, including SightFirst,
the world's largest
blindness prevention program.
