What we do

At the heart of our mission lies the mantra "We Serve," a principle Lions embody each day. As caring individuals, we unite to make a tangible difference in our communities, recognizing the power of collective action over individual effort.

With unwavering dedication, Lions invest their time, skills, and resources into the fabric of our localities. We firmly believe in the potential to overcome any challenge when we stand together for the greater good. Guided by our ethos of service, Lions Clubs across Ireland undertake impactful projects at various levels, from international to club initiatives.

These projects span a diverse range, encompassing crucial areas such as healthcare, refugee aid, and disaster relief. Within our districts, Lions lead over 15 projects annually, including initiatives like Senior Citizens Holidays, Diabetes Awareness campaigns, and Youth Development programs.

Operating under the umbrella of more than 100 Lions Clubs nationwide, we address a broad spectrum of community needs. Whether it's fundraising for local charities, providing educational support through scholarships, or facilitating transport for individuals with special needs, we strive to meet the diverse needs of our neighbors.

During the Christmas season, our annual food appeal extends a helping hand to local families in collaboration with organisations like Saint Vincent de Paul. Our fundraising efforts have also benefited local charities such as Raheny Hospice and Don Bosco Care, among others.

Furthermore, we actively contribute to environmental endeavors, sponsoring projects like the creation of the Bayside Community Orchards and supporting local sports clubs with necessary equipment. Engaging in heritage preservation, we participate in initiatives like the restoration of historic landmarks such as the Howth Martello Tower and the iconic Eire 6 sign on Howth Head.
