The International leaders will be joined by Lions Club members in Kenya.

Leaders from Lions International will conduct diabetes screenings and dental check-ups for more than one thousand students from Sekenani Primary School in Narok County.

In a press briefing on Tuesday, October 17, the Lions International President Dr. Patti Hill said they will also distribute nutritious food and one hundred solar cookers to the villages of the Maasai tribe.

The leaders will then establish the Lions Forest in the Nashulai Conservatory by planting five hundred trees to help preserve the environment, empowering youth at Sekenani Girls School,  providing feminine hygiene products, and feeding more than five hundred school children.

"We are honored to be serving beside our Lions and Leos in Kenya, who are making positive changes throughout Africa.

"Change happens when caring people come together to serve others. I invite everyone looking to make a significant difference in your local community to join your local Lions or Leo club and be the change you want to see in the world,” said the Lions International President.

Hill explained that the Lions International leaders chose to visit Kenya as it is one of the economies and leading countries in Africa.  

“Just within this nation, approximately 50 clubs are working to serve the needs of everyone in their communities. Kenya is a growing country we have more than 51 million people claiming home residence here and that represents a lot of opportunities and a lot of needs,” she stated.

The Lions International President also observed that over one million people have been served by Lions Club members in Kenya since September 2022.
