Lions are...
- People who have decided to dedicate a small part of their time and efforts to support the needy in their communities.
- People who identify the needs of others and set about meeting those needs.
- People who enjoy working in comrade-ship to help those less fortunate than themselves.
- People who enjoy themselves and who experience still further enjoyment while helping others.
