The current  fundraising projects of the Waterville Lions Club include Diner's Club Coupon Booklets, the Lions Candy Mint Sale, and public dinners.

In the past, the Club has been involved in the sale of Scott Paper products, brooms, light bulbs, and raffle tickets.  For many years, we conducted an annual Chicken Barbecue.

Included among the many services the Waterville Club has provided for the community are the following:  Dental Clinics and Dental Care for children;   Eye Care and glasses for the needy; Eye screening for Pre-School children; Glaucoma and Hearing screenings for the Elderly.

Our current major emphases are Eyesight Screening, Eyeglass Prescription and  Purchase, and Substance Abuse Awareness.

We collect eyeglasses to be distributed worldwide. 

During the Christmas season, the Waterville Lions Club rings the bell to collect donations for the Salvation Army. The Club also donates to the American Cancer Society, Dirigo Boys and Girls State, the HeadStart program, the Waterville Humane Society, Hospice, Maine Center for the Blind, the Maine Hearing Center, Maine Children's Home, Mid-Maine Homeless Shelter, the Pine Tree Camp, the Waterville Food Bank, the Waterville Little League, and Sacred Heart Soup Kitchen.
