Rehoboth Anawan Lions News

At our recent meeting we held our White Cane Day at the two Dunkin Donuts in Rehoboth and we had a very successful event which went to Massachusetts Eye Research that the event raised for research which has come a long way with the help from Lions Clubs like ours to find all new ideas to help people who need the help. Lions International has just celebrated its 100 years and has certainly come a long way. Our club the Rehoboth Anawan Lions club is already 25 years old and we have accomplished so many things and donated to a lot of the community, helping children in need, giving to the food pantry to name just a few ........so we have been very successful in all our endeavors, and we will continue in that mode.....also our success has been through all the support that we have received from the community to help us be successful and for that we say Thank You!
