Lions Clubs have engaged in various community service and health initiatives across different regions.

In Eswatini and Malawi, efforts focused on club expansion and charitable donations. The Mbabane Lions Club was officially launched in Eswatini to support the capital city, while the Mpingwe Lions Club in Malawi donated food supplies and academic stationery to the Courageous Kids Foundation to assist 98 children.

In the United States, clubs have prioritized vision health through screening programs. The Aurora Lions Club provides free screenings for children in collaboration with local organizations, and the Story Lions Club in Sheridan has implemented a voucher program with the Salvation Army to help families afford follow-up eye care, such as exams and lenses.
