Brooklyn Crown Heights Lions Club, Inc
A History of
Dedication and Service
Brooklyn Crown Heights has provided the district with some outstanding leaders,
including three Past District Governors - PDG Clement Hancock (deceased),
PDG Reginald Daniels and PDG D. George Allen (deceased). During the past
forty-eight years, Crown Heights has sponsored nine new clubs. We were a
Model Club during the Sight First II Campaign, raising $30,000 for LCIF. We
currently have two cottages at VISIONS Camp for the Blind.
Our club has donated computers to Trinity United Methodist Church and for many
years, our members conducted computer classes for the senior members of the
church. Currently, members conduct monthly technology training classes with
seniors at the Phillip Howard Senior Center in Brooklyn.
Our service projects include quarterly feedings, an annual Literacy Fiesta, eye
glass collection, annual Thanksgiving dinners, providing nursing home patients
with gifts for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
