Did you know your old reading glasses can help someone see clearly again?
The Clarence Town Lions Club is proudly supporting the Lions Recycle for Sight program. This initiative collects used prescription glasses and sunglasses, which are cleaned, sorted, and sent to people in need across the world – often in remote or disadvantaged communities where access to eye care is limited. It’s an easy way to give something you no longer need a second life.
Drop-off boxes are available at: Clarence Town Bowling Club, and Clarence Town Op Shop
We encourage everyone to check their drawers, cupboards, or glove boxes – every pair can help change a life.
We’re also excited to share the success of our recent Biggest Morning Tea, hosted by the Clarence Town Lions Club to raise funds for cancer research. With overwhelming support from the community, we enjoyed a wonderful morning of delicious treats, raffles, and great company. Together, we raised an impressive $2,279.10! A heartfelt thank you to all the volunteers who helped organise the event, our incredibly supportive community, and the generous local businesses who donated gifts, raffle prizes and morning tea. We couldn’t have done it without you.
The Clarence Town Lions are also actively looking for new members or volunteers. Being a Lion doesn’t mean a lifelong commitment—it just means you care about your community and want to help where you can. Whether you can offer an hour a month, a special skill, or help with a single event, we’d love to hear from you.
Volunteering is a great way to connect with others, give back, and be part of something meaningful. It’s also a lot of fun!
If you’d like to learn more or come along to a meeting, reach out to any of our local members or pop by one of our Lions markets. Together, we can make a difference.
