Belton Lions Club Community Involvement

   Belton Lions Club Community Projects  

---

 

   The Belton School District Vision Program:  Annually the Belton Lions donate more than $2,000 to ensure that no child in the Belton School District goes without proper eyeglasses.  Working with the school district's head  nurse, the need is identified,  the child is referred to a local optometrist who fits the child with eyeglasses and bills the Belton Lions Club.  We have partnered over the years with both the Belton School District and Dyer Vision Center to satisfy the needs of this program.

   Missouri Lions Eye Research Foundation (MLERF):  The club donates annually to this organization.  Cass county residents who need the services of this foundation are referred by the club. 

   Belton Lions Scholarship Program:  Annually the club awards one $500 scholarship to a deserving and eligible graduate of Belton High School. 

   Belton SMILES Program:  This program is being sponsored by our club with help and participation from the Belton School District and local dentists to provide needed dental care to children in our school district who are unable to afford the care. For information or to participate in this program, contact Lion Bob Gregory.

   Belton High School LEO Club:  Our club is proud to sponsor this LEO club.  We are presently working with the Belton School District to re-establish this club at the Belton High School Freshman Center. 

   Belton Lions "Tee It Up For Sight" Annual Pro/Am Charity Golf Tournament: This is our club's one major fundraiser of the year.  Event is held annually in August at the Eagles Landing Golf Course, Belton, MO.  We sincerely "thank" all those who participate and help us raise the funds necessary to support our many projects!
