Bill > J01635

This resolution commends the Larchmont Mamaroneck Lions Club on its 100th anniversary, recognizing its significant contributions to the community and its dedication to service. The Larchmont Mamaroneck Lions Club is part of Lions Clubs International, a global service organization known for its work with the blind and visually impaired, a mission inspired by Helen Keller in 1925. Founded in 1926, the club has consistently supported various causes, including aiding the visually impaired, promoting youth programs, and fulfilling community needs by donating braille books, eyeglasses, and equipment, supporting organizations like Visions Center on Blindness and Guiding Eyes for the Blind, and contributing to local projects such as providing kits for soldiers, sponsoring youth sports, and purchasing community amenities. The resolution also highlights the club's history of community engagement through events, its progress in inclusivity with the first female member and president, its revival after a dormant period, and its merger with the Mamaroneck club in 2017, all of which are attributed to the dedicated efforts of its members.
