Help make a difference by supporting the community projects and fund-raising campaigns developed to enhancing our communities.
Building the Foundation is an additional fundraising campaign to help members carry on the mission of Lionism through monthly giving. The easiest method is an automatic draft performed monthly from a checking account with a donor designated amount. However, this can be done through automatic withdrawals or checks and performed monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. Each Lion is encouraged to give at least $10 a month to help support state projects but many give more.
Lions motto "We Serve" is accomplished through a variety of projects, most notably individual Club designated service projects based on their own individual community's needs. Volunteers can also serve at any of the four Lions service projects in Oklahoma. Call the Office at: 405-947-6540 to be connected to someone who can help you decide! The more you are truly satisfied by helping others the more you will want to be a LION!
Ok Lion's Legacy lives on.......
In 1992, the Oklahoma Lions Service Foundation’s permanent endowment fund was established at the Oklahoma City Community Foundation. The fund serves as an annual source of income for the organization and helps to provide supportive services to Lions Clubs and to our state projects. These focus on improving the lives of those in need.
You may want to consider our endowment fund for current giving and include it in your estate plans. The Oklahoma City Community Foundation can work with you and your professional advisors to make a lasting gift through an estate gift such as:
The Oklahoma Lions also have a Trust at the Trust Company of Oklahoma. This fund is divided into two sub-categories. One is dedicated to the continual support of the Oklahoma Lions Meadows of Hope, the other is designated by the OLSF Board of Directors.
In accepting a contribution to any fund, the Oklahoma City Community Foundation trustees commit to the donor that the contribution will be protected for the charitable purpose originally intended. The variance power, as described in the governing documents of the Oklahoma City Community Foundation, assures donors that if the charitable purpose of their contributions becomes impractical or impossible, the distributions will be directed to similar purposes in the community
