Student Speaker Contest

Every year every Lions Club in California host a student speaker contest for high school students. Each club hosts this event for their local school districts and sends their winner to compete at the next level contests and all the way up to the state competition. Each win earns them more money for their college tuition. Last year, our local Pomona Host Lions Club’s winner won the whole contest and received over $21,000 for college tuition. This year the subject is “Artificial Intelligence: friend or foe” and applications to compete at the club level are being accepted.

House of Ruth

Every Christmas, the Chino Valley Lions Club hosts an event for current residents in Hous of Ruth. The House of Ruth is a domestic violence non-profit that helps victims of domestic violence by providing shelter, clothes, food and transitional housing. Victims of DV often can’t celebrate Christmas with their friends and families because their abusers know where they live. The Chino Valley Lions host a Christmas Celebration for current residents and buys gifts from Santa. We provide food, refreshments and fun activities providing a sense of community, normality and good cheer for the Christmas Season.

A Touch of Home

In 2017, the Chino Valley Lions Club started our A Touch of Home Project for our nation’s AirForce Personnel. We delivered bags filled with gifts for our nation’s heroes who can’t go home for Christmas. We started small, our first time we delivered 30 bags filled with games, snacks, gift cards and home-knitted hats. Since 2017, we have expanded this service project district wide and will be delivering just under 1,000 bags this year!!
