Lions Clubs Programs
Lions clubs across the country support the Lions Foundation in a number of ways.
The Awards Program is separate to other revenue sources at Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides. Lions Awards are purchased from the foundation - they are not given as a result of other donations. In this regard, Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides operates differently than LCIF.

- Donations

If you would like to make a donation to Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides, please visit our donation page. Donations are to the Dog Guide training program and may not be used to purchase awards.
- Memorial Gifts

- To make a tribute gift in honour or in memory of someone is a meaningful way to recognize your loved ones, friends, fellow Lion or pet while contributing to Lions Foundation of Canada. Many people choose to have donations directed to the foundation after their death, with a notice in their obituary.
- You can honour the life of someone through a donation or by purchasing a tree to be planted in the Memorial Forest. You can also sponsor a Dog Guide team in memory or in honour of someone or someone’s special occasion.
- A donation can also be made in memory of a beloved pet or a plaque may be purchased on the a Pet Memorial Wall.
- Project Pride
-
Lions Project Pride is a program for Lions Clubs to express their pride in Canada and in being a Lion. Lions have the opportunity to instill pride in their community by presenting a Canadian flag (15.5cm x 25.5cm; 6" x 10") and a certificate to grade one students. The flag presentation represents the diversity of our country and the pride we take in being Canadian. Over 40,000 flags are distributed every year across Canada.
For more information please download the Project Pride brochure and Project Pride order form or call 780-532-3027. A special thank you to PCC Lynne Coulter for managing this project.
- Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides
-
Many Lions and Lioness Clubs support Lions Foundation of Canada by hosting a Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides in their community. The walk is the foundation's largest annual fundraiser. Support is needed from more Clubs to help ensure we successfully deliver on our mission.
- Sponsorship Opportunities
-
Sponsoring a Dog Guide will cover a portion of the approximately $35,000 – this includes breeding, training and placing the Dog Guide with individuals across Canada at no cost to them. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to name a Dog Guide in honour or in memory of someone or for someone’s special occasion. Read more
