The Rochester '76 Lions
club was chartered in December of 1975. We are a club of about 30
active members that have a special interest in service. The Rochester '76
Lions club is a part of Lions Clubs International. Lions is a service
organization that has Preservation of Sight and Preservation of Hearing as
major national service goals. Formed in 1917, Lions were challenged by
Helen Keller to be "...Knights of the Blind..."
Since that time,
Lions have recognized that diabetes is a major cause of blindness in the
world, and has added Diabetes Education and Research as national
projects.
Lions clubs throughout the world are organized into
Districts by country and other geographical considerations.
The
Rochester '76 Lions Club is a part of a larger governing body called
District 5M-1. There are 11 other districts in Multiple District 5M, which
includes all of the state of Minnesota, Manitoba and the western part of
Ontario in Canada.
