The Chadwick Champions Club Branch of the Shoals Area Lions has been consistently meeting on Tuesdays, building friendships, strengthening their leadership, and finding meaningful ways to serve their community!

This incredible group has established a $100 fundraising goal for their very first fundraiser! 🎉

But now, they have a question for YOU…

💙 What cause do you think they should support first?

Drop your ideas in the comments! Let’s help our Champions choose a cause that makes a difference and shows the power of service, inclusion, and community connection.

🦁💙 Serving Together. Belonging Together.

The Shoals Area Lions Club is proud to announce that we have officially become the parent club for the Chadwick Champions Lions Club Branch!

Chadwick Champions was created with a simple but powerful goal: to serve our community while creating an environment where people of all abilities can find connection, purpose, friendship, and belonging.

We believe everyone has something to contribute, and everyone deserves a place where they are known, valued, and welcomed. Together, we are building a branch that brings people with and without disabilities together through service, fellowship, and community connection.

Want to be part of something bigger? You don’t have to have a disability to be a Chadwick Champion, you simply have to believe everyone belongs.
