About Us

 

District 201V6 is spread along the mighty Murray river, stretching from Quambatook & Kerang in the west to Corryong in the East, from Lockhart in the north to Bright in the south.

Our 55 Clubs & 5 Leo clubs span the Victoria - New South Wales border with clubs in both states.

As a member of Lions Australia you will experience a number of personal benefits including leadership skills, a sense of self-worth and purpose, business skills, networking opportunities and lifelong friendships.

What we do

Lions Australia has a proud history of achievement in Disaster and Emergency Relief, Medical Research and Community Service. We were at the coalface for Cyclone Tracy, the Black Saturday bush fires and the Queensland floods.

We were involved with the development of the bionic ear and the cervical cancer vaccine Gardasil, developed by Prof Ian Frazer AC, a former Lions Medical Research Foundation Fellow. We also inspired a young Fred Hollows and continue to provide funding for a range of other research initiatives involving diabetes and autism.

We assist with local community fundraising for special causes and help with the development and building of local parks, community venues, and sporting centres.
