Mission Statement The Miami-Dade Lions Club believes, as does its international sponsor, that men and women that live in a community are the ones in the best position to know who needs help and why. The organization's motto "we serve", says it all! The Miami-Dade Lions Club is a group of young adults that cross various cultural lines dedicated to meet the needs of the local community. In particular the Miami-Dade Lions Club places an emphasis on youth and community based activities. About the Miami-Dade Lions Club The Miami-Dade Lions Club was created to reinforce the ideals and service traditions of its international sponsor. The organization immediately began attracting young adults eager to serve their communities. The Miami-Dade Lions Club instantly allowed its members to partake in the organization's decision making, something that other organizations lacked. Each member in the Miami-Dade Lions Club is unique and offers individual qualities that deserve to be heard and respected. The Miami-Dade Lions Club encourages its members to take an active role in establishing the organization's short and long term goals, as well as speak their mind. As a result, each opinion counts, every member is respected, and every community is given the opportunity to receive assistance. The organization's main objective is to better the community by increasing understanding, goodwill and peace throughout Miami-Dade's diverse communities. Members of the organization give their time, skills, and resources to raise funds for charities locally and internationally. Why join? The Miami-Dade Lions Club is a service organization that is composed of volunteers that perform community service.
