The Beaverton Lions Club was organized in 1944. As a part of Lions International, we are a service organization that has eye care as its principal charitable work. For years the Beaverton Lions have provided eye exams and eyeglasses to Gladwin County residents. We support other Lions’ state and national eye care projects and run our local Project Kid Sight, where we take pictures of young children’s eyes and have them analyzed for potential eye problems.

With over 50 members, the Lions Club is Beaverton’s only service club organization. All our fundraising and charitable projects are focused only on Gladwin County residents and our local community. In addition to our eye care projects, we award scholarships to local students, support local, law enforcement and school projects, have an Adopt-a-Family for Christmas program, assist residents with hearing aids, build community park enhancements and sponsor the Leo Club at Beaverton High. The Lions support a number of other community endeavors and an important element is to provide a clean safe environment for various community functions and events hosted by community organizations and individuals alike.
