Our Projects
Disaster Support
Pinelands Lions has provided assistance to our fellow Australians impacted by natural disasters such as cyclones, flooding and drought. This support includes providing a Financial Assistance and Goods for Drought Ravaged Communities in Western Queensland and providing assistance to communities affected by flooding in both Queensland and NSW.
Mission Possible
Pinelands Lions works in partnership with Mission Possible who are made up of a large group of passionate workers who make care packages for people in need.
Diabetes
Diabetes is the Fastest Growing Disease in Australia and Lions Australia are providing assistance dogs for people with Diabetes in Australia.
Vision
It is estimated there are over 575,000 people who are blind or vision impaired currently living in Australia. Today the Lions Eye Institute is recognized as the most advanced eye institution in the Southern Hemisphere, seeing over 50,000 patients and performing close to 4,000 major eye operations annually.
Childhood Cancer
Lions Australia has contributed over $12 million dollars to Childhood Cancer Research. This effort has resulted in, amongst other things, safer and more effective blood stem cell transportation for leukaemia patients following chemotherapy which can lead to shorter hospitalisation and more rapid recovery. Lions have done a lot, but the job is not over because we believe every child has the right to a healthy life.
Environment
Since 1972, Lions Clubs have made a commitment to servicing the community in environmental related projects. Over 3,000 environmental projects are carried out by Lions in Australia every year. These projects are aimed to improve the quality of air, water and land as well as protect and preserve local flora and fauna.
Hunger
Hunger is a problem in all of Australia. LCIF provides grants, programs, and initiatives to provide nutritious meals for Australians in need. Our hope is one day, no child will ever go hungry. On any given Day, over half a million households in Australia are Struggling to Meet their Food Needs.
Pinelands Lions Hall
Our Heritage Hall was built in 1927 by the Runcorn Progress Association and fell into disrepair prior to Pinelands Lions acquiring it.
Our hall is maintained by the Lions members as a service to the community.
Our hall is made available to community groups at cost, along with being made available for hire to other groups
