LCIF (Lions Clubs International Foundation): There When the World Needs Us Most

Working alongside local Lions, we assess urgent needs and quickly provide assistance to disaster victims.

Lions understand that disasters can strike anywhere—close to home or on the other side of the world.

• More than US$18 million allocated to disaster relief programs worldwide.
• US$6 million mobilized to assist victims of the earthquake in Haiti.
• US$15 million mobilized following the Southeast Asian tsunami.
• US$5 million awarded to fund reconstruction projects after Hurricane Katrina.

Emergency Grants

Thanks to the continued support of Lions for LCIF, Emergency Grants help meet immediate needs for water, food, shelter, and medical care.

Rapid assistance enables disaster victims to find the strength to overcome the shock and losses they have suffered, while restoring hope and helping them begin the process of recovery and rebuilding their lives.
