Community Support

While Lion clubs are chartered to support research and services in the areas of sight, hearing and diabetes at the region, national and international level, we also serve our local community both with respect to these healthcare issues as well as a broad range of other local needs.  Following are some of the many ways in which the Harvard Lions benefit the local community…

• Purchase of new sight screening equipment for Harvard schools

• Sight and hearing screenings of Harvard students using the Lions ‘Sightmobile'

• Provide equipment to support Special Ed students

• Hearing and vision support for needy local Harvard families

• Aiding disabled families such as providing wheel chair ramps

• Assisting local senior citizens

• Donations to Loaves & Fishes

• Financial support of Bromfield student projects

• Scholarships for deserving high school seniors

• Contributions to community programs e.g. post prom party, town Halloween celebration, HES playground, fire department and ambulance squad

• ’Just Understand My Potential’…local youth development program
