Frequently Asked Questions

Considering Joining Us?

Who are the Club members?

We are made up of dedicated people, just like you! We do great work, we make lifelong friends, and we have a lot of fun along the way. Members have a desire to be involved in community service in Union City. You probably already know many of our members as your friends and neighbors.

Doesn’t this take a lot of time?

Not really. The amount of time you put into the Lions Club is up to you. No one person is expected to do it all. The Club meets twice a month, on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month. Generally, one meeting is scheduled at lunchtime, and the other is in the evening. Meetings of working committees are held as required. Time spent at meetings and on service projects should be based upon what makes you feel comfortable while balancing your work and family priorities.

How can I help?

As a Lion, you can help provide your neighbors, and the world, with eyeglasses, hearing aids, eye surgeries, kids summer camps, reading help, student scholarships, vocational and life skills training, disaster relief, drug and alcohol abuse prevention programs, and financial and human assistance for many, many, other needed local and global services.

What is the next step?

To find out more about the club, just ask a Union City Lion or take a look at our "Join Us" page. Either way you will be invited to be our guest at one of our meetings to meet us and learn more about the club.

Where does this money go?

Every dime collected by Lions fundraisers goes directly to community services. Administrative expenses are paid by our members, through their dues payments.
