Lions Clubs: Making an Impact on Global Causes
While every Lions club has its own unique service focus and responds to the specific needs of its community, all Lions clubs worldwide unite around eight key global causes that are of particular importance in creating lasting change and improving lives across the globe. These causes are central to our mission, and they guide the work we do—whether locally or internationally—empowering us to make a difference in the lives of people who need it most.
At the Coquitlam River Lions Club, while we focus on addressing the needs of our local community, we are also part of this global movement, supporting and aligning with these causes to make a worldwide impact. By joining our club, you are not only helping to make Coquitlam a better place, but you are also part of something much bigger—helping communities and individuals across the globe.
