Where there's a need, there's a Lion.
The Emmitsburg Lions Club is your neighbors serving Emmitsburg — helping local people see, eat, learn, and celebrate, under one motto: We Serve.
What your Lions do
Lions serve five global causes — vision, diabetes, hunger, the environment, and childhood cancer — and this club brings them home to Emmitsburg.
