Isn't it time you volunteered to serve your community?

Since 1917, local Lions clubs have offered people just like you the opportunity to give something back to their community. Today, with over 1.4 million men and women in more than 180 countries, Lions have expanded their focus to help meet the ever increasing needs of our society.

As a member of the Albany & Troy Lions Club, you become aware of the needs of our community and have the advantage to effectively make a difference. Our club provides volunteers with project management assistance, leadership training, personal development opportunities, and organized fundraising programs. Being a Lion empowers you to help others in a way that no one person could alone.

Now more than ever, people with vision problems, the environment, our senior community, our youth and the disadvantaged around the world need your help. You can make a difference. By joining the Albany & Troy Lions Club, you can help meet pressing needs in our community and around the world.

Come join the world's largest service organization and help us make life a little more pleasant for the blind and the needy. We need your support, your time and your ideas! You'll be surprised at how much personal satisfaction you get from helping those less fortunate.

We meet on the first Wednesday of every month (except July & August) at 5:45 p.m. at the Red Front Restaurant, 71 Division St in Troy. You are welcome at any meeting, but please call first; sometimes we change time or location for a special event.
