 <\/p>\n

Bourne Lions are ordinary Men and Women from all walks of society who do extraordinary things to help others and support good causes both locally and throughout the British Isles. Globally we have more volunteers in more places than any other service club organization, and love to help others and make things happen whilst having fun at the same time.<\/p>\n

Because we are local, we serve the unique needs of the communities in which we live.<\/p>\n

Lions Way of Working<\/h5>\n

As members of Lions Clubs International, we have a global network of 1.4 million volunteers. When a humanitarian crisis strikes, Lions Clubs International Foundation work with and are guided by their own Lions members who are ordinary people present on the ground. <\/span><\/p>\n

As the World's largest voluntary, non-governmental organization, our volunteers fundraise in their own local communities, with every penny raised being used to help those in need.
\nWe don't spend money on fancy fundraising campaigns, all our administration and marketing costs are funded by members' subs. It can prove difficult providing aid but we are committed not to wasting the money entrusted to Lions by the public and ensuring it can genuinely help victims of a disaster. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lions Clubs of the British Isles are very grateful for the public support, which enables us to commit to solving long-term problems through our presence in local communities throughout the world. Every Lions Club supports a range of good causes and local projects in its area where you can get involved.<\/span><\/p>\n
