The Lions Club of Westborough

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Since 1917, local Lions clubs have offered people just like you the opportunity to give something back to their community. Today, with over 1.4 million men and women in more than 180 countries, Lions have expanded their focus to help meet the ever increasing needs of our society.

As a member of The Westborough Lions, you become aware of the needs of our community and have the advantage to effectively make a difference. Our District provides volunteers with project management assistance, leadership training, personal development opportunities and organized fundraising programs. Being a Lion empowers you to help in a way that no one person could alone.

Now more than ever, people with vision problems, the environment, our senior community, our youth and the disadvantaged around the world need your help. You can make a difference. By participating in The Westborough Lions Club, you can help meet pressing needs in our community and around the world.

Lions Club International is the largest service organization in the world. With membership in over 180 countries, Lions are committed to serving their local community as well as to serve those in need worldwide.

Local and District Lions Charities include:
 

Massachusetts Lions Eye Research Fund - Fund to support various eye research facilities in Boston and Worcester 

Sight and Hearing Fund - Fund which provides grants for eye and hearing related needs

The Westborough Lions Club was re-established in 1994 by citizens with a sense of commitment to the community and the desire to make a difference. Since then, with a small but dedicated membership, the Club has raised and donated back to the Town and the various Lion’s causes, tens of thousands of dollars in cash, goods and services.
