We Can Only Build Stronger Communities By Learning From Each Other

March 03, 2024  /  Leah Malcolm

     The District 36-E convention is fast approaching:  March 22-23 in Bandon, Oregon. We encourage all Lions to register and attend.  It is a time for Lions to renew friendships and find new friends within our Lions’ community.  We as Lions can get together and network with each other, compare notes, learn from other clubs how they succeed.

     We will have ID Marie Cunning to give us an update on what is happening at Lions Clubs International.  She will also answer our Questions and give us guidance on how we can improve our own clubs and help them build stronger communities.

     We can only build stronger communities by learning from each other.  We change the world through our actions within our local communities.  We change the world by working with our larger community, we are Lions from all over the world with one common goal:  To improve the world, we live in.   We are changing the world!

Respectfully,

Stephen Brewster

District Governor MD36E

“Will you not help me hasten the day when there shall be no preventable blindness; no little deaf, blind child untaught; no blind man or woman unaided? I appeal to you Lions, you who have your sight, your hearing, you who are strong and brave and kind. Will you not constitute yourselves Knights of the Blind in this crusade against darkness?”
— Helen Keller's Speech at 1925 International Convention Cedar Point, Ohio, USA June 30, 1925
