Make Your Mark
Everywhere we serve, every time we give, we bring kindness and compassion, change and hope. And we make our mark on the lives we touch, the communities we serve and the world we share.
Shaping Our Future
President Oliviera’s programs and initiatives will focus on four key priorities for Lions International that are critical to our mission of service.
- Growing our membership and clubs for greater impact
- Becoming stronger together through LCIF support
- Taking the next step as Lions and service leaders
- Capturing the imagination of our communities through great marketing
Vision Screening Endorsed District C–1 Lions Project
Vision Screening has been endorsed as an ongoing District C-1 Lions project throughout the clubs in the district. A Plusoptix vision screening device has been received through a District and Community Impact Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF) grant.
The purpose of the Plusoptix vision screening device is to empower Lions Clubs to detect the most prevalent vision disorders in children as early as possible. The earlier a vision disorder is detected the better it can be treated, and possibly prevented. Lions Clubs can conduct vision screening in children aged 6 months to 12 years by holding community events.
The vision screener device is relatively easy to use, and a great opportunity exists for clubs to meet young families in the community. Organizing the training, developing forms and protocols for District C-1 Lions Clubs is underway. Once finalized, clubs will be advised and can sign up for training.
It is very exciting to support children’s VISION – one of Lions Clubs’ International global causes!
