AWARDS

Recognition is an important part of what Lions do. By encouraging each other we create a spirit where all want to work harder, contribute more and smile more. It allows us to share our mission with people who do not know what Lionism means. And it opens up opportunities for Lions to seek out new areas of service. Some of the things that we give awards for include:

 

  • Recruiting new Lions

  • Community Service

  • Meeting Attendance

  • Membership Anniversaries

  • Special Projects

  • Fund Raisers

 

 

FELLOWSHIP AWARDS

 

As part of its recognition awards, Lions Club International recognizes local club members with outstanding service by enrolling them in a number of select fellowships.  These fellowship awards nominees are selected by the local club board.The awards are funded by donations from the local clubs to Lions Club International in honor of their deserving members.  Similarly, members can be recognized by donations to the Lions Camp, where an engraved brick is laid in their honor.
