As one of our international causes, many of the clubs of A5 collect used eyeglasses to send to 3rd world countries. The North Bay Lions club was busy packing up some of these glasses to send to Sudbury which are then sent by pallet to our Canadian shipper to send overseas. This is a vital service as many of the people receiving these glasses have never had a pair in their lives.

Another important fundraiser that the North Bay Lions are proud to be a part of is the Tim Horton’s Smile Cookie campaign. All of the funds raised go back to local charities and non-profits such as the Lions clubs and telethons. Some of the members putting the finishing touches on dozens and dozens of cookies are Lions Ellen Thibeault, Barry Fitzgerald, Frank Perras, Bonnie Fitzgerald, Kim Ransom, and Sharon Fleguel. What a great job Lions.
