Serving With Pride
Wild fires have devastated communities in Southern California and have displaced thousands from their homes. Homes have been destroyed, people have been traumatized and jobs have been lost. The firestorm has claimed 24 lives so far.
As of this writing, there are currently 5 wild fires ravaging Southern California: the Palisades fire which encompasses over 23,000 acres, the Eaton Fire (over 14,000 acres as well as the smaller Kenneth, Hurst and Lidia Fires. In all, almost 38,000 acres and over 10,000 structures have been damaged or destroyed. The fires have been fueled by power winds and dry conditions.
Please know that our California Lions clubs are working with their local communities to assist victims of these devastating fires. California Lions Foundation is ready to support our California Lions Clubs in service to our communities and neighbors. Your donation will directly help fire disaster victims, not only in the evacuation effort but also in the rebuilding of their lives.
As a tax exempt charitable 501(c)(3) entity, the California Lions Foundation is here to provide you with the opportunity to help those in need. Help is urgently needed. Now is the time to come to the aid of our neighbors and our communities throughout California in a time of unprecedented need.
Where there is a need, there is a Lion. Right now the need is great. Please do your part to help.
Sincerely,
PDG Mario Benavente
President, California Lions Foundation

Have you hugged a Lion lately? Have you hugged a family member lately? Have you hugged a new associate or an old acquaintance lately? Have you hugged an employee of a business where you trade lately? Have you hugged a Democrat or a Republican or an Independent lately? Have you hugged your kids lately? Have you hugged your parents lately? Have you hugged your dog or your cat or any other faithful pet that you have lately?
What does a hug mean? A HUG is the act of putting your arms around someone or something as a way of showing love or friendship!
In this day of turmoil and dissension, wouldn’t it be wonderful if respect, courtesy, civility and lawfulness was the norm and each of us could be respected for how we feel when we express ourselves and that each of us could respect others with a different point of view when they express themselves. I think so. (ed)
