We Help Hemphill Families
and Have a Good Time Doing It

You’re in the right place if

 You want to make a difference.
You don’t want it to take over your life.
You want to meet new people in the community and have fun!

So, What Do We Actually Do?

We show up for our neighbors when they need it most.

Lions and Leos make a difference every day, everywhere we serve. And with the support of our international association and our global foundation, we are changing lives, communities and the world we share.

We make a difference right here at home.

Why It Matters Around Here

When someone’s hurting in a small town, we all feel it.

If these needs go unmet:

  • Kids fall behind in school
  • Students miss out on college
  • Families face the holidays with nothing


Leaving our friends & neighbors feeling forgotten in their hometown.

What Happens If We Don’t Keep Going

If we slow down, these needs don’t go away:

  • Fewer kids get the help they need
  • Scholarship money dries up
  • Families fall through the cracks


Hemphill loses a little more of what makes it special
