Stay safe, stay healthy, and keep serving!

🌿 Phase 11: “Clean the Nature” Campaign 🌿

Our “Clean the Nature” Campaign, initiated by Lion Sachen Rai, Club President, continues to make a positive impact in our community. We would like to sincerely thank Lion Sachen for his dedication and hard work in making this campaign a success.

On August 9, 2026, members of the NH Everest Centennial Lions Club gathered to clean the surroundings of the Dover Community Trail in Dover, New Hampshire. With the support and participation of Lion Ajay Rana Bhat and Lion Alina Karki, we worked together to help keep our community clean and beautiful.

During the cleanup, we collected approximately 5.5 pounds of litter, including plastic, empty cans, cigarette butts, candy wrappers, and water bottles from the trail and surrounding area.

We are proud of our members for continuing to give their time and effort to protect our environment and serve our community.

🌱 The “Clean the Nature” Campaign will continue through this fall.

Together, we can make a difference—one cleanup at a time!

-Everest Lions Club Family.
