The New York State Bermuda Lions Foundation, Inc., is a non-profit corporation. Donated funds are disbursed as grants for humanitarian projects in local communities in conjunction with local Lions Clubs.
The Foundation receives contributions from individual Lions, Lion Clubs, Corporations, other Foundations, and runs fundraising activities throughout the year. Since its founding in 1992, the Foundation has approved more than US$ 355,000 for service projects that have improved the quality of life in many communities in our Multiple.
Its mission is to provide District-Wide support for worthy projects, which would otherwise be beyond the means of individual clubs or districts.
