CLUB HISTORY

A small group of young and successful businessmen and professionals who shared the same idea formed themselves to reach a common goal - TO SERVE. These young men are continually finding ways to be able to reach out to the less fortunate members of the community.

With a vision of a better world through effective LIONISM, these young executives met with the officers of the local affiliate of the most prestigious service organization in the world - THE LIONS CLUB.

The Dumaguete City (Host) Lions Club, a local affiliate of the Lions Club International represented by its active members: Lion Deputy District Governor Mau Piramide, Lion Incumbent President Fel Ventulan, Lion Immediate Past President Henry Chuang, and Lion Past President Sagar Sagabarria conducted a series of orientation meetings with these young executives on the ideals of service and LIONISM.

From then, the METRO DUMAGUETE LIONS CLUB was born.
It was organized on September 17,1987 but chartered by the International Association of Lions Clubs on March 2,1988.

To Date, the Club has implemented a continuing swine dispersal program for the different barangays in the city, contributed to various relief projects, initiated blood donation projects, sponsored different activities: concerts, PBA games for the different recipient projects and annually sponspored a Chrismas Party for the indigent children of the city.

The CEBU SINULOG LIONS CLUB, Cebu City, is the twinning club of the METRO DUMAGUETE LIONS CLUB.
