Chief among a persons motivation to join a Lions club is the desire to help those in need and serve the local and world communities.
However, membership in a Lions club offers benefits beyond humanitarian service, including:
Develope leadership skills
Meet peers in the community
Expand ones personal and professional network
Build prestige as an active community volunteer
Learn how being a part of the worlds largest service club organization can make a difference
While it is important not to let other interests inhibit the clubs ability to serve the community, it is possible to feature other member benefits and offer opportunities that will make your club more attractive to potential members. Giving members the chance to network is an excellent way to add value
to their Lions club membership. Networking opportunities can be offered in several ways.
Publish professional interests and expertise along with member contact information in the club directory.
Allow members to make business announcements at the beginning of each meeting
Include news regarding members professions or business in the club newsletter or Web site.
Have a page featuring members professions or business in the club newsletter or Web site.
Offer discounted advertising rates to members in appropriate club, district and multiple district publications,
Invite participants to provide information about their profession and employer when introducing themselves during club,
Hold a networking social event or business fair where the focus is on members making professional connections.

advice about choosing the right trees for your yard or a car dealer could share information about purchasing a used
Offer an executive mentoring program that brings senior or established executives together with members who might be
new to their shared profession or interested in learning about the profession.
Networking allows members to make connections or do business with people whom they know on a personal level, thus strengthening the bonds among Lions and adding value to their individual membership.
