The Rochester '76 Lions club was chartered in December of 1975. We are
a club of about 30 active members that have a special interest in
service. The Rochester '76 Lions club is a part of Lions Clubs
International. Lions is a service organization that has Preservation
of Sight and Preservation of Hearing as major national service
goals. Formed in 1917, Lions were challenged by Helen Keller
to be "...Knights of the Blind..."
Since that time, Lions have recognized that diabetes is a major
cause of blindness in the world, and has added Diabetes Education
and Research as national projects.
Lions clubs throughout the world are organized into Districts
by country and other geographical considerations.
The Rochester '76 Lions Club is a part of a larger governing
body called District 5M-1. There are 11 other districts in Multiple
District 5M, which includes all of the state of Minnesota, Manitoba
and the western part of Ontario in Canada.
