The Goal
The LCIF Day is an extraordinary Europe-wide event.
The goal of this initiative is, for all Lions Clubs in Europe, to be seen, giving our clubs and our service activities the visibility we deserve, as well as to raise funds for LCIF.
After the first European LCIF Days celebrated in 2021, 2022 and 2023, inspired by their success, a new edition was planned and will take place on June 1st, 2024.
Given the ongoing situation in Ukraine and the needed help for reconstruction after the dramatic earthquake in Turkey, seing the extraordinary spontaneous solidarity shown by Lions all across Europe, the LCI Day 2024 will again be in favour of the victims of both disasters
The purpose of the LCIF Day is to:
- Gain visibility and build awareness for Lions in their communities
- Showcase our extraordinary commitment to help and to serve
- Engage with the public, tell our stories and our impact
- Welcome new members
- Raise funds to empower Lions and LCIF
We encourage all clubs across Europe to participate.
The LCIF Day will be club-organised events all over Europe, wether coordinatd by their districts or in the zones, or individual club events
Be in touch with your neighbouring clubs, with your Zone Chairperson, your district cabinet or your LCIF District Coordinator to discuss your club’s participation.
LCIF Day 2024 will be an opportunity for the Lions of Europe to come together for the victims of the war in Ukraine and the victims of the earthquake in Tukey and in Syria, to demonstrate our spirit of unity and commitment to service.
With fundraising actions that raise just 10 Euros per Lion on average, Europe can add €2.2 million in donations to support future projects, while encouraging new members to join our clubs and our community of service.
The European LCIF leadership and the LCIF staff, provide support, such as resources, press releases or international promotion.

How the idea came up
Many countries in Europe, as well as in the rest of the world, are regularily organizing large scale coordinated events, allowing the clubs to showcase the outstanding service they provide to their commmunities, locally and world-wide. During our global LCIF Campaign 100, the Lions of Europe came with the idea to launch a Europe-wide Lions and LCIF Day. It has since become a yearly event.
Many in Europe are already planing their LCIF Day 2024.
What about you? Come forward and tell us more about your club, your district or your national events.
More and more Districts and Multiple Districts are embracing this idea and the momentum is growing. We are hoping to have clubs in all of our almost 50 countries in Europe participating.
Imagine the visibilty we will get with our 9'300 clubs across Europe participating. It will be an amazing stage where the media and the public will realise the oustanding work our clubs are providing, answering the needs of our communities, locally and globally.
Club Events all over Europe
The concept is to promote Club Activities. We want to see our clubs in action in their cities, neighbourhoods and villages. Nonetheless, we need the Multiple District, the Districts and the Zone leaderships to be onboard to promote and support their clubs, to make sure all participate, by following up and coordinating the club activities.
Be creative and innovative
Our diversity, creativity, sense of innovation, and our comitment to serve, as more than a century has proven, will once again meet this opportunity to show who we are and what we do.Our clubs will be all over Europe. The public and the medias will be amazed. The sky is the limit and we look forward to seeing you all in action.
