Photo of the Week: Lions in the Philippines Provide Disaster Relief for Typhoon Victims

Posted by on Monday, October 31, 2011 · 14 Comments  

After a natural disaster – such as an earthquake or typhoon – strikes, many of our members work on projects to provide relief to victims. We received this week’s photo via our Submit a Photo page.

Malolos Lions Club

When members of the Malolos Lions Club learned that typhoon victims in the Province of Bulcan needed food and water, they decided to help. This photo shows club members distributing clean water and more than 800 bags of relief goods to victims.

    I drew a poster and made it to regionals, hope to make it further. I did a whole bunch of research for the project in art, and in my spare time, and I was shocked that we got rewarded with money because I was doing it to fulfill and inspire others. So, I’m gonna donate some of the money to local charities. (:

    Our district governor Climaco Evagelista asked all his clubs in the Visaya 301-B2 district of the Philippines to donate peso 10.000.00 to this, just as we do in all typhoon events both local and international.

    We even gave aid to brother and sister Lions in Japan during the earthquake they had earlier this year. Lions here in Philippines are pretty giving individuals. My club stays busy with about four civic projects a week. God Bless!
