     WORKING HARD TODAY FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE TOMORROW


                                                     We are in the home stretch of C100, which will culminate on
                                                     6/30/22. Model clubs will be given an extra year to wrap up their
                                                     pledges etc. Lions, we are making history every day.
                                                     The following will explain:
                                                       At the end of the 1st quarter, we have raised over $23,000,
                                                       with 21 of our 76 clubs contributing. But we will not ease up
                                                       because we will achieve our goals, and more. I thank
                                                       the district and our Lion members for their compassion and
                                                       empathy demonstrated through their giving. You are giving
                                                       from the heart as you consider those in need, and I feel
                                                       compelled to mention the country of Haiti. Need I say more?
                                                       You may not be able to be there in person, but what you give
                                                       monetarily or in kind, makes a difference.
                                                       We placed 2 in MD20 raising $164,935 since C100 began in
                                                                 nd
                                                       2018.
                                                       We placed 3 rd  for clubs in MD20 with our International
                                                       President’s club donating over $30,000 for the fiscal year,
                                                       2020-2021.
                                                       Globally, C100 has raised to date $229.3M. We need $71M to
                                                       reach our goal. Will you help? Imagine how many lives will
                                                       be touched with $300M and 600M acts of service?
                                                     Towards this end, the following is our District’s goals:
                                                        i) 100% club participation - All 77 clubs are asked to donate
                                                          to C100.
                                                        ii) 100% membership donate at least $20, what a boost that
                                                          would be!!
                                                        iii) Become a 100/100 club = $8 per month, give up Starbucks
                                                          coffee once weekly.
                                                        iv) If you or your club has never considered giving a donation,
                                                          I’m pleading with you to make the decision to donate to
