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.<\/p>

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.
