Lions face
A New Century of Challenges
As technology shrinks the world and brings people closer together, Lions Clubs International is in a unique position to bridge the gap between cultures and increase understanding between peoples.
The Redcoats of the Sunland-Tujunga Lions are preparing to do their part in making this smaller world a better world for the future.
They are reaching out and forming new partnerships with the schools, with government, with other organizations.
They are reaching out to their friends and neighbors, inviting them to be part of the world’s largest service organization, inviting them to serve one another, the disabled, the weak, the poor, the injured, the dispossessed, the abandoned, the young and the old.
They are reaching out the hand of friendship.
