What's Up?

This was an amazing event to help cleanup up our community, with both local news coverage, and community participation from schools across Delta and BC. Thank you to everyone who came out to make a positive impact on the environment and fostering a better future for our city.

Our Leos spent a wonderful evening at the Earthwise Society farm as we cultivated new life and learned more about sustainable gardening in the community! Enjoying the sun and the fresh ocean breeze, we helped prepare plant beds for the beginning of spring, and can't wait to come back again to immerse ourselves in the garden once more.

This year, we had almost 30 Leos come out to this event to help shovel manure and raise money for our Leos clubs future initiatives. After hours of hard work, we shoveled over 300 bags of manure and raised thousands of dollars that could not have been done without the help of the Surrey Central Lions and all the other Leos clubs.

On March 17th, three of our executive team went to visit the Vancouver Longhouse for their International Board Meeting of Directors, where Lions with executive positions from around the world came to discuss the future of Lions International. With almost 150 executives there from countries worldwide, from Asia to Europe to South America to Africa, the room was filled with people conversing in different languages, all connected by a passion for service.

At the beginning of 2024, our Leos decided we needed to ask the community what they wanted to do in our school, recieving many fun ideas. 

The Delview Leos hosted an incredible ramen fundraiser on February 22nd, raising almost $100 in profits and not even selling out!

The Delview Leos hosted it's second samosa sale in November, being a popular treat for Delview students and staff. After raising over $100 in profits to go towards future charitable events, our members were excited to continue supporting the community and serving food to those who donated. 

The Delview Leos had a ton of fun baking tasty goodies to sell at lunch for Delview students, and raised a hige profit to go directly towards supporting relief during the Syria-Turkey earthquake, partnering with the Lions to donate thousands towards international aid during the devastating earthquake.

The Delview Leos Club had it's first sale on March 29th, 2023 selling samosas at Delview Secondary, and raising over 200 dollars to go towards their club funds, which would later go towards creating new events to help out and serve the community or as a donation to the Turkey-Syria Earthquake Relief Fund in collaboration with the Lions Clubs International. Most of the members came to participate and it was a successful first run selling products in a school community for the Delview Leos.

This event went wonderfully, and our Leos enjoyed raising money in Downtown Vancouver to support children's mental health.
