Dear Lions and Leos,
As humanitarians, we respond whenever and wherever the need arises. Grants from our global foundation enhance our service. I’m proud to report that during the August 2025 LCIF Board of Trustees Meeting, 114 grants were approved, totaling more than US$9.3 million.
This month we recognize Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and the ways Lions, Leos and others, empowered by LCIF funding, raise awareness, promote early detection and support care. Next month, we will mark World Mental Health Day on October 10. Lions and Leos are working to raise awareness of mental health and well-being in their communities. LCIF is proud to support their efforts through District and Club Community Impact Grants, Matching Grants, Leo Service Grants and Lions Quest. Your donations make this important work possible.
At your service,
Fabrício Oliveira, LCIF Chairperson
