About Us

1917, Lions clubs have offered people the opportunity to give something back to their communities. From involving members in projects as local as cleaning up an area park or as far-reaching as bringing sight to the world's blind, Lions clubs have always embraced those committed to building a brighter future for their community.

Today with more than 46,000 clubs, 1.3 million men and women in 202 countries and geographical areas, Lions have expanded their focus to help meet the ever-increasing needs of our global community.

Known for working to end preventable blindness, Lions participate in a vast variety of projects important to their communities. These projects range from cleaning up local parks to providing supplies to victims of natural disasters.

In our community, the Rio Linda Elverta Lions have made it possible for local kids to go to school, improve their speaking skills, go to camp, compete in sports, and explore our political system. We enable our community members to have convenient eye screening and health information.

The monument—fountain at Troy Park was the Rio Linda Lions club’s first major project. This monument honors Troy Graham a Lion and employee of S.M.U.D who died in the line of duty while trying to restore power during a storm.

The Lions proudly assisted with the re-creation of the historic Depot Building and is currently helping restore one of our original fire engines.

“We Serve”

Lions Code of Ethics

· To Show my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation for quality of service.

· To Seek success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own self-respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable acts on my part.

· To Remember that in building up my business it is not necessary to tear down another's; to be loyal to my clients or customers and true to myself.

· Whenever a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself.

· To Hold friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one another, but that true friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the spirit in which it is given.

· Always to bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my state, and my community, as to give them my unswerving loyalty in word, act, and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor and means.

· To Aid others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid to the weak, and my substance to the needy.

· To Be Careful with my criticism and liberal with my praise; to build up and not destroy.
