Lions are known of service acts for preventing unnecessary blindness. Deaf-blind Helen Keller persuaded Lions to this activity already in the 1920's. The use of the white stick by the blind around the world has been initiated by the Lions. The Finnish Lions are not trying to replace the society's services but instead complete them. With our values we raise certain supportable subjects of current interest which are not getting enough attention by public authorities.
Lions do service activities that improve life quality in Finland.
The service covers people from teens to veterans. Individual memorials of Lions service are seen almost in every place. The present challenges include taking care of our youth. Young people need encouragement to prevent frustration. The frontier and Northern communes are undeniably becoming empty.
