Flying Beyond
Where There's A Need. There's A Lion.
Lions Clubs International is the world’s largest service club organization with more than 1.4 million members in 200 countries across the globe. Here in Waxhaw, members are very active in programs that increase access to eye care services, including KidSight™ eye screening for children and the collection of used eyeglasses. 100% of funds raised by Lions Clubs are used to benefit charities and local community programs.
1 billion people live with vision impairment that could have been prevented or can be corrected.
KidSight is a free vision screening program where Waxhaw Lions Club volunteers conduct vision screening sessions at pre-schools and other early childhood centers.
It is as simple as having your child’s picture taken. Local Lions Club Members use a PlusOptix camera, a vision screening device that is 85%-90% accurate in detecting vision problems.
Making A Great Place To Live Even Better.
Whenever a Lions Club gets together, problems get smaller – and communities get better. That’s because we help where help is needed – in our own communities and around the world – with unmatched integrity and energy.
Lions are service-minded men and women who are interested in improving their communities. We are younger and older people, families, and singles. To become a Lion means being an active volunteer, a member of a highly respected global organization, a leader in your community, and a friend to people in need.
