What is Lionism?

What is Lionism? Lionism is a spirit within Lions Clubs where members feel the need to help solve recognized problems and needs of the community through use of their own resources. The clubs are non-political, non-sectarian groups of persons from all facets of community life who work to enhance cooperation among all agencies and organizations to meet and alleviate needs not only in their own country but also in 177 countries throughout the world. Lionism affords this efficient medium for national and world service, exerting tremendous influence for natal welfare, international amity and peace, and human progress socially, culturally and economically.
