About us

Who we are

The Kent Lions are an all – volunteer “Community Service Organization.” We are a group of fine individuals dedicated to help those in need, providing enhancement to our community through hands-on projects and grants and to creating an environment that allows our members to enrich their own lives by unselfishly serving others.

The main charitable cause of the Lions worldwide is eyesight and hearing conservation programs. This is only a partial list as individual lions clubs are involved in a wide scope of charities. We raise funds through the community and our members contribute their time, money , and effort in order to provide assistance on the various Kent Lions projects.
