Since 1956 the 100 Mile House Lions Club has raised in excess of $350,000 that has been used locally, provincially, nationally and internationally to help people in need. We have been able to raise this money through the generous and unstinting support of the business and industrial community in and around 100 Mile House. Business and industry have donated substantial amounts of both merchandise and money to our various projects and the people of this area have supported us by purchasing the items we have put forward in our fund-raising efforts. Every donation and purchase over the years has made it possible for us to contribute significantly to our community and we look forward to its continued support in the years and decades to come.
