Florence Lions featured at FACC Jan. 8, 2025 meeting

Florence Area Community Coalition’s January 8, 2025 monthly meeting will feature the Florence Siuslaw Lions Club, which in 2024 celebrated an amazing 76 years of service to this community.

On January 8, 2025, at 10:45 am in the Bromley Room of the Siuslaw Public Library (and online via Zoom), you are cordially invited to come and meet and learn about them. They champion kindness and actively work to improve the lives of people. They serve at many events throughout the year, do fundraisers, and provide sight and hearing services in the community. This Lions Club hosts an annual bass fishing tournament, they award scholarships to high school students, do vision screening of grade school students, collect used eye glasses and hearing aids, provide service to help address hunger in the community, and so much more!

Lions are actively serving their communities in over 200 countries and geographic areas around the world. Florence Siuslaw Lions are looking for individuals right here in Florence who would like to join their team. Interested?
