Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover how in 1917 a group of businessmen in Chicago created the world's largest humanitarian service club organization! This book tells a detailed and unique history of Lions Clubs International, and highlights the work of dedicated members who provide community service and help people worldwide. Founded in Chicago in June 1917, the dream of a group of visionaries, led by Melvin Jones, from Fort Thomas, Arizona and Dr. William P. Woods, from Evansville, Indiana, is today the largest service club organization in the world. Almost 100 years old, the International Association of Lions Clubs can be found in 208 countries and geographic areas, with 1.35 million members participating in more than 45,000 Lions clubs. Originally published in 1995, this revised edition includes new data and extensive research about international conventions, the leadership of international presidents and directors, and photographs of the past 97 years. It also describes the role of Lions Clubs International in the founding of the United Nations in 1945. Global authorities such as kings, heads of state, congressmen, and professionals belonged or supported Lions clubs' projects in their countries. Sir Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, said that, "Lionism is not the best idea of the present; it is the most brilliant idea of all times." Harry Truman, former president of the United States stated, "In my lifetime I have known many great ideas: but none as great as this of Lionism." Former president of the United States Jimmy Carter became a member of the Plains Lions Club in the state of Georgia, was a district governor, and up to this date he works in partnership with Lions Clubs International Foundation. Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF), the official charitable arm of Lions Clubs International, supports Lions' compassionate work by providing grant funding for their local and global programs, such as helping victims of earthquakes, floods, and other natural disasters, and by supporting programs, such as SightFirst which is working to find the cure for reversible blindness. Lions are proud that LCIF was named the #1 non-governmental organization worldwide with which to partner, according to a 2007 Financial Times independent survey. Lions answered the call from Helen Keller who, at the 1925 International Convention, asked the Lions to become the "Knights of the Blind." Lions' members and the public at large will be captivated by this vivid account of the organization's history and aspirations for what can still be accomplished in the future.

This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about why people volunteer and what motivates them to continue their commitment to serve the needs of others. The designation in the title—from the heart—was chosen purposely because it identifi es a place of origin. Using stories from the heart creates understanding about how service transforms lives. These stories create a greater appreciation for the role that service can have on an individual’s sense of purpose. Focusing on stories from the heart was the right choice for a book about Lions International because of the association’s impact on the world for more than 100 years of humanitarian service. Through the stories and comments included in this book comes a clearer understanding of what service to others has meant for those who have chosen to give of themselves to make life better for those in need.

Bust of Melvin Jones in Madrid (Spain).Lions Clubs International, a service membership organization of 1,368,683 members world-wide, was founded in the United States on June 7, 1917 by Melvin Jones, a Chicago businessman. Jones asked, with regard to his colleagues, "What if these men who are successful because of their drive, intelligence and ambition, were to put their talents to work improving their communities?" Jones' personal code, "You can't get very far until you start doing something for somebody else," reminds many Lions of the importance of community service. The Lions motto is "We Serve." Focal Lions Club programs include sight conservation, hearing and speech conservation, diabetes awareness, youth outreach, international relations, environmental issues, and other programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We Serve in Dry Heat is a history of the start of Lionism in Arizona and the origin of Lions Club International, researched and written by Past District Governor James D. "Jim" Bailey. "After living in Arizona for several years and being involved in Lions Club activities there, I felt something was missing. There didn't seem to be a definitive history of how Lions Clubs were started in Arizona, along with the story of how Lions Clubs International was actually started by a native of Arizona. I had been involved in Lionism for 50 years. I was first a member of a Wisconsin Lions Club in 1952 and later served as a District Governor. Since I had been appointed the Historian for the Lions of Arizona, I decided to investigate the background of Arizona Lionism. I spent the next five years researching and writing the book, focusing on the Lions' motto, We Serve. The text of the book includes historical development of Arizona Lions Clubs starting in 1923; Lions who were elected to district and international offices; humanitarian projects; programs of Arizona Lions Clubs with the infusion of women and youth into Lionism, and more. I've included information about the origin of Lions Club International, and the influence of blind and deaf Helen Keller, who asked the Lions to become "Knights of the Blind. " This cause has been carried on since 1925, and has evolved into Lions raising millions of dollars to eradicate blindness on a worldwide scale as well as the simple task of providing eyeglasses for local school children. The title, We Serve in Dry Heat, is evocative of Lions Club members as they provide humanitarian service in the heat of Arizona summers, sometimes serving in temperatures reaching 122 F degrees as well as in the dry winter months. The founder of Lions Clubs International is a man by the name of Melvin E. Jones, who was born in 1879 at Fort Thomas, Arizona, where his father was stationed as a military officer. Jones eventually had a successful insurance business in Chicago. After joining a local business club, whose motto seemed to be "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours," he felt that something else was needed. He gathered together a number of local and regional clubs who agreed with him. It was from this gathering that Lions Clubs International was started in 1917. As the author of such a commanding amount of material, I have utilized many sources quite freely for relevant historical and related information and have given clear acknowledgement of these sources." says Bailey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a special type of men and women, those who seek to return to society a portion of the good fortune they have earned and received in their own lives. They are called Lions and, since 1917, have actively engaged in constructing an organization that has evolved into one of the world’s most powerful forces for humanitarian progress: The International Association of Lions Clubs. It is today comprised of nearly 1.3 million members in over 45,000 Lions clubs active in 202 lands spanning the globe. They speak scores of languages and represent diversified cultures. In spirit, however, they speak a common language, the language of voluntary service, responding to an inner drive to answer human needs and to improve living conditions in their own communities and the world community. This book expands upon the history of Lions Clubs International, published in 1991 as “We Serve: The History of the Lions Clubs.” It chronicles the development of the association from its birth in 1917 at Chicago’s LaSalle Hotel in June of that year and at its first convention at the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas later in October. It relates 90 years of the association’s life span and emphasizes the work of Lions on the world scene, including the tremendous success of the Lions Clubs International Foundation, SightFirst, Campaigns SightFirst I and II, programs for youth, and other activities that have elevated the stature of Lions wherever they serve. Readers will be impressed with the accomplishments of the membership and Lions will be moved to take greater pride in wearing the lapel pin of the association. Non-Lions will come to understand fully the ideals and determination of those to whom voluntary service has become a way of life.
