The Mystic Lions Club is proud to support the many local charities and organizations that make a real difference in our community. Through fundraising and hands-on volunteer work, we strive to help these groups achieve their goals—because often, time and effort can be just as impactful as financial support.
While our region is often viewed as an upper-middle-class area filled with beautiful shoreline towns and thriving tourism, the reality is that many of our neighbors face challenges such as homelessness and lack of access to basic necessities like food and clothing.
At a recent monthly meeting, we were honored to welcome Tori Lee of Malta Outreach in Groton, Connecticut. She shared the organization’s ongoing mission to bring light, dignity, and opportunity to individuals facing difficult circumstances—challenges that no one should have to face alone.
Malta Outreach is dedicated to restoring dignity and hope. Whether it’s providing clothing for a job interview, assisting a senior citizen in finding housing, or supplying essential items like toiletries, cleaning products, and food, their work has a meaningful and immediate impact. In some cases, individuals are living in their cars, where even putting gas in the tank can be a major hurdle.
The Mystic Lions Club is proud to contribute to this mission, and we are committed to finding even more ways to help.
We encourage you to take a moment to visit Malta Outreach’s website and page, follow their work, and consider making a donation. Most importantly, remember that these challenges are happening right here—in Mystic, Groton, and Stonington—and your support can truly make a difference.
Whether you join us or contribute on your own, we invite you to reach out and be part of something meaningful. Giving the gift of dignity and hope is one of the most powerful ways to serve our community.
