Who we are
Chartered in 1950. Still serving.
The Dallas Lions Club was chartered by Lions Clubs International in 1950. We’re women and men from our local communities who give our time, talent, and treasure to make the Back Mountain a better place to live and work. Our focus is vision health, childhood and family hunger, and education.
In a recent year alone, the Dallas Lions contributed over $10,000 to charitable organizations, and we award three $1,000 Joseph J. Canfield Memorial Scholarships every year to graduating high school students from the Back Mountain, including Dallas, Lake-Lehman and West Side Career & Technology Center (West Side Vo-Tech) students.
