Northport-Tuscaloosa Area Lions Club Northport, Alabama

Community service means a lifelong commitment to improving the lives of others through compassion, integrity and action. It’s about recognizing needs within a community; whether related to vision care, hunger or human care and development. It’s also about stepping for- ward to make a tangible difference. In January of 1955, a group of caring citizens started the Northport Lion’s Club. The club just celebrated it’s 70th anniversary of community service. Service is not seen as an obligation to a Northport Lion. It’s seen as a privilege and a shared mission carried out alongside fellow members who are united by a common purpose: to serve selflessly. Through hands-on projects, fundraising efforts and volunteerism, Northport Lions view community service as a way to create lasting impacts, strengthen local connections and uphold our motto “we serve”.
