When a series of wildfires raced across Australia’s southern state of Victoria in 2009 — destroying homes and even entire rural towns — Lions from near and far swiftly responded with emergency aid.
And in 2020 we are doing the same, rallying our Lions, as well as caring friends and neighbors across the globe, to support the victims of these disastrous wildfires.
We need your donations to make this happen.
Funds collected by our club via this campaign will be given to Lions of Canada Fund for LCIF who will help us move them to the Lions Club International Foundation for use in Australia. You will receive a Canadian tax receipt for your contribution.
This campaign is endorsed and supported by the following Lions Executives.
 |  |  |  | Guðrún Yngvadóttir Past International President and LCIF Chairperson Iceland | Barry Palmer Past International President, Lions Club International Australia | Dr. Patti Hill Vice President, Lions Club International Canada | Allan Hunt International Director, Lions Club International Canada |
Please join them in supporting this cause by making a donation and sharing the campaign with your social networks.
Below is a news clip from a few days ago, showing just how serious these fires are and how devastating the effects are! We will be sending over the funds to our fellow lion's clubs in Australia to deal with these fires and the huge aftermath head-on and as soon as possible.
These fires have not only destroyed the surrounding bush areas, but whole neighborhoods, wildlife, and peoples livelihood have gone up in smoke. Please make a donation so we can help support them put out the fires and start to rebuild their lives.
Here is the situation as it currently stands.
