PRESIDENTS WELCOME AND INVITATION
Welcome to the Butler Lions Club of Butler, Pennsylvania. We are an organization of men and women banded together and dedicated to working to help our community. Our members come from all walks of life; some are retired and some work full time jobs. We come from differing educational and work backgrounds, but we have one thing in common: WE SERVE!
During the last Lions year, our club donated money to several charitable organizations located in and around the Butler area. Since Helen Keller challenged our organization many years ago to be "Knights of the Blind", we have given the majority of our money to the blind and other sight and hearing impaired people in our community. Many disadvantaged residents of Butler and Armstrong counties receive free eye exams and glasses paid for by our club.
If you would like to be part of an organization with an 86 years history of serving the community, we invite you to visit and join the Butler Lions Club.
A 7.0 earthquake devastated Haiti on Tuesday, January 12, with continuing aftershocks. Lions around the world are responding generously and quickly to the LCIF designated fund for this disaster.
Lions Hope for Haiti has mobilized nearly US$2 million to date. Lions Hope for Haiti is Lions and LCIF working together to provide relief and hope for the people of Haiti. Donations are continuing to pour in from individuals, clubs and districts.
LCIF is working directly with Lions of Haiti as well as Lions in neighboring countries to assess the immediate needs and also develop a long-term reconstruction plan. Two containers of relief supplies have been transported by Dominican Republic Lions to Haitian Lions and Leos, and supplies were distributed to an orphanage and hospital and the tent cities. Two hundred tents have set up for victims and relief workers to establish three Lions tent cities in Delmas, Blanchard and Carrefour-Feuille. Each tent city can accommodate 300 families or 1,200 people.
