🌈 A New Name, Same Club! 🦁

At our meeting this week, our members made an exciting decision to change the name of our club branch from Melbourne LGBTIQA+ & Friends Lions Club Branch to:

🌈 Melbourne South East Pride & Friends Lions Club Branch 🦁

The word “Pride” embraces the diversity of the LGBTIQA+ and q***r community, while our new name also reflects the broader area we want to support.

📍 We will be meeting in the Kingston/Bayside area and our club will focus on supporting communities across the south-east and eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

We’re excited and look forward to building a welcoming, inclusive Lions club where everyone has a place, everyone can contribute, and everyone can make a difference. ❤️💛💙💚💜

🌈 Pride. Friendship. Service. Community. 🦁

Welcome to the Lions family 🦁

Tonight marked a significant milestone as we proudly inducted three new members into the Melbourne Deaf and Hard of Hearing Lions Club. They will also be founding members of the Melbourne LGBTIQA+ and Friends Lions Club.

A warm welcome to Isla, Gayle and Bec.

Your enthusiasm, passion, and determination to serve others will make a real difference in our community. We know you will embrace the Lions values of service and fellowship, and help shape the future of our club.

Congratulations on becoming Lions members. We are excited to have you on this journey with us and look forward to all we will achieve together.

Last weekend was International Tree Planting Day, and it was fantastic to see three of our founding members of the Melbourne LGBTIQA+ and Friends Lions Club Branch getting involved. They joined forces with the Melbourne Deaf and Hard of Hearing Lions Club along with a mate from out of town for this environmental project.

Together, we planted native shrubs along the beautiful Chelsea foreshore, helping to protect and enhance our local environment for future generations.

A big well done and thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and effort. Every tree and shrub planted makes a difference! 🌱💚

If you identify LGBTIQA+, or are an ally who wants to give back to the community, make new friendships, and be part of meaningful projects like this, we’d love to welcome you to our Lions Club. Get in touch to learn more about becoming a member!

🌈 Pride Month: Serving Every Member of Our Community 🌈

This Pride Month, we celebrate diversity, inclusion and the many people who make our communities stronger.

As Lions, our motto is We Serve. That means welcoming everyone, respecting every individual, and working together to build communities where all people feel valued, supported and connected.

We're proud to serve a world in need—one that is strengthened by understanding, kindness and acceptance.

Happy Pride Month from your local Lions Club. 🦁🌈
