the world. |

government and good citizenship. |

welfare of the community. |
| To Unite the clubs in the bonds of friendship, good fellowship and
mutual understanding. |
| To Provide a forum for the open discussion of all matters of public

Lions Code of Ethics
| To Show my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious
application to the end that I may merit a reputation for quality of service.
|
| To Seek success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit as my
just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own
self-respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable
acts on my part. |
| To Remember that in building up my business it is not necessary to
tear down another's; to be loyal to my clients or customers and true to
myself. |
| Whenever a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or
action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself. |
| To Hold friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that true
friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one another, but
that true friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the spirit in
which it is given. |
| Always to bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my
state, and my community, as to give them my unswerving loyalty in word, act,
and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor and means. |
| To Aid others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid to
the weak, and my substance to the needy. |
| To Be Careful with my criticism and liberal with my praise; to
build up and not destroy. |
