About Us
The Concord Lions Club proudly serves the Concord, Massachusetts community and Lions projects worldwide. Chartered in 1941, the Concord Lions Club is a member of Lions Clubs International, the world’s largest service organization. Our motto is “We Serve”, and Lions members generously volunteer their time to humanitarian causes, with a particular focus on service to the blind and visually impaired. Our club raises money for Eye Research, special devices to help individuals with vision disabilities, Clara Barton Camp for diabetic children, special purchases for the Concord Fire Department and Concord Police Department, Concord Recreational Center, scholarships for area High School students, and other local area needs. We collect eyeglasses for processing and distribution to third world countries, toys for the Toys for Tots program, and gloves, hats and scarves for residents of the Lazarus House. Hopefully, you’ve seen us around town. We can be found serving popcorn at local events such as the Minute Man Arc March or serving seniors during our Valentines Luncheon. You can also find us serving a delicious Pancake Breakfast during the annual Patriot’s Day parade in Concord. And in the past, you could find us at our Den, the concession stand at the Concord-Carlisle High School football games, where we served hot dogs and snacks. We hope to return when the concession stand is rebuilt. And we sponsor other fundraising events such as an annual concert, annual Classic Car Show, and Family Magic Show. All of the proceeds raised at our events support Lion’s causes. We also organize and/or participate in several community events in Concord, including a Valentine’s Day luncheon for members of the Council on Aging and the annual Minuteman ARC Walk. The Concord Lions Club meets every second Tuesday of the month (September through June) at 7:00 pm at Papa Razzi Restaurant in Concord. The Borad of Directors meet to discuss business issues on the fourth Tuesday of the month at Concord Park, 68 Commonwealth Avenue, Concord.
