LIONS CLUB MEMBERS
Board of Directors
Our all-volunteer Board of Directors is made up of Lions Club members from each of the 5 sub-districts of the Massachusetts Multiple District 33. The Board must consist of a minimum 30 directors, including at least 6 members of each of the 5 sub-districts. The MLERF Board of Directors is made up of individuals from all walks of life with varied professional, business and civic backgrounds, but all with the same mission – eradicate eye diseases and end blindness. Together, with Lions from around the globe, they live the Lions motto – “We Serve”.
