Calne Lions raises money throughout the year with our Santa Sleigh, Burger Van and Duck Race. The majority of the money raised is used locally to support our community, however we do occasionally send donations to the Lions Clubs International Foundation which sends money to Lions Clubs in disaster hit areas, which helps local groups offer directed help, where it is most needed.
Below are articles about some of our recent grants, sponsorships and donations. If you would like to speak to Calne Lions about a grant request, please go to our contact us or email communitysupport@calnelions.org.
