Lions live where you do.  Lions care about the things you do.  Every Lions club -- a reflection of the community we serve.  Lions make a difference.  Meeting the needs of people and communities.  Everyday.  Everywhere.

In China, Lions Club International Foundation LCIF launched a ground breaking program to combat blindness.  "The world health federation formally announced that the Sight First China action would be a model for developing countries in preventing and curing blindness."  In five years, Lions restored sight to 2.1 million Chinese.  "I feel very excited.  Many thanks for doing the cataract extraction operation on me and enabling me to see the light."  Lions Sight First has saved and restored vision to millions of people worldwide.  Lions championed the needs of people and helped filled the voids that exist in communities around the world.  Lions make a difference.  Everyday.  Everywhere.

In the next 60 seconds, twelve people in our world will go blind -- one of them a child. Hello, I'm Jimmy Carter. Experts predict in the next 15 years, the number of blind people could double to 75 million, yet 80% of blindness is preventable. Lions Club International has long been a champion of blindness prevention. I know, because I am a Lion. Since 1990, Lions Clubs have saved the vision of 24 million people in countless communities through the SightFirst program. Now, Lions have launched campaign SightFirst II to expand blindness prevention programs worldwide, and save the sight of 37 million more. Vision improves lives. We need your help.
