The Livermore Lions Club was formed in 1958 with 21 members.  Two of the original 21 are still active in the Livermore Lions Club.

The Mission Statement of the Lions Club International is:  “To empower volunteers to serve their communities, meet humanitarian needs, encourage peace and promote international understanding through Lions Clubs.”

The Motto of the Lions Club is:  “We serve.”

The Livermore Lions Club meets every 2^nd and 4^th Tuesday at 7:00 pm at Livermore City Hall.

Activities include sponsorship of festivals for the city, continuous support of local worthy causes and sponsorship of the annual Christmas Parade.  The Christmas Parade is a free event.  There is no registration fee for any entries in the parade.  The only requirement is that the entry be lighted.  The entries are judged, and awards include a 1^st prize of $300, a 2^nd prize of $200 and a 3^rd prize of $100.  You may contact Livermore City Hall to advise of your planned entry at 278-2113.

One of our local worthy causes is the collection of old eye glasses in order to utilize the lenses for glasses for others.  We work with the international program “Sight First II” who’s goal is to stamp out preventable blindness in third world countries.  The Livermore Lions Club gave $1,000 to that event.
