Lions Clubs International (LCI) is a secular service organization with over 44,500 clubs and more

than 1.3 million members in 203 countries around the world. Headquartered in Oak Brook, Illinois,

United States, the organization aims to meet the needs of communities on a local and global scale.

HistoryLions Clubs International was founded in the United States in 1917 by Melvin Jones, a Chicago

businessman. Jones asked, with regard to his colleagues, “What if these men who are successful

because of their drive, intelligence and ambition, were to put their talents to work improving their

communities?” Jones’ personal code, “You can’t get very far until you start doing something for

somebody else,” reminds many Lions of the importance of community service.

The Lions motto is “We Serve.” Focal Lions Club programmes include sight conservation, hearing

and speech conservation, diabetes awareness, youth outreach, international relations, environmental

issues, and other programs.

Purpose

The stated purposes of Lions Clubs International are:

To Organize, charter and supervise service clubs to be known as Lions clubs.

To Coordinate the activities and standardize the administration of Lions clubs.

To Create and foster a spirit of understanding among the peoples of the world.

To Promote the principles of good government and good citizenship.

To Take an active interest in the civic, cultural, social and moral welfare of the community.

To Unite the clubs in the bonds of friendship, good fellowship and mutual understanding.

To Provide a forum for the open discussion of all matters of public interest; provided, however,

that partisan politics and sectarian religion shall not be debated by club members.

To Encourage service-minded people to serve their community without personal financial reward,

and to encourage efficiency and promote high ethical standards in commerce, industry, professions,

public works and private endeavors.
