Lions Club of Brisbane Chinese - Serving with Heart, Unity & Purpose 布里斯本華人獅子會 – 以愛心、團結與使命服務
Founded in 1996, the Lions Club of Brisbane Chinese (BC Lions) is a proud part of the global Lions Clubs International network – the world’s largest service organisation with over 1.35 million members across 220+ countries and regions. Our Club unites passionate individuals from diverse backgrounds, bound by a common commitment: to serve the community with compassion, energy and integrity.
For nearly three decades, BC Lions has played a unique and meaningful role in bridging cultures and building connections between the Chinese-Australian community and broader society. Born from a desire to show how migrant communities contribute positively to Australia, our Club has grown into a vibrant, multi-generational family of volunteers working together to make lasting impacts.
We serve where the need is greatest – whether it’s raising vital funds for medical research, supporting families at Ronald McDonald House, empowering youth through leadership programs, promoting environmental sustainability, or hosting Australian citizenship ceremonies to celebrate new beginnings. Our members have cooked meals for sick children, provided scholarships, planted thousands of trees, and rebuilt schools in disaster-affected regions. True to our motto “We Serve”, every dollar raised by the Club is directed toward charitable causes, not administration.
BC Lions is especially proud of its enduring support for the Lions Medical Research Foundation, having raised over $200,000 to back breakthrough research into cancer, diabetes, immunology, and more. Through projects like the Personality Quest, Christmas Love Campaign, and Campaign SightFirst, our Club continues to champion health, inclusion, and hope for those most in need.
Our members span a wide range of ages and professions – from young professionals and students to business owners and retirees. What unites us is a shared belief that giving back is not only a responsibility, but a joy. In doing so, we gain leadership experience, friendships, and the deep satisfaction of creating a better future.
The Lions Club of Brisbane Chinese is more than a service club – we are a living expression of what happens when people from all walks of life come together in kindness and purpose. If you're looking to make a difference, build meaningful relationships, and be part of something bigger than yourself, we welcome you to join us.
Where there’s a need, there’s a Lion – and in Brisbane, there’s BC Lions.
成立於1996年的「布里斯本華人獅子會」(BC Lions)是全球國際獅子會網絡自豪的一部分—這是世界上最大的服務組織,擁有超過135萬名會員,遍布220多個國家和地區。我們的會聚集了來自不同背景、充滿熱情的人士,並信守共同承諾:以仁愛、活力和誠信服務社區。
近三十年來,「華人獅子會」在溝通文化和推動澳洲華人社區與廣大社會的聯繫方面扮演了獨特而有意義的角色。「華人獅子會」的創立源於展示移民社群如何對澳洲做出積極貢獻的願望,如今已發展成為一個充滿活力、多世代的志願者大家庭,在大家的共同努力下,在社會上留下持久的影響。
我們服務於最需要的社會事項—無論是為醫學研究籌集重要資金、支持·麥當勞叔叔之家(Ronald McDonald House)內的家庭、透過領導袖計劃賦予青年人力量、促進環境可持續性,還是舉辦澳洲入籍儀式來慶祝移民新的開始。我們的會員曾為患病兒童烹飪餐點,提供獎學金,種植樹木,以及在災區重建學校。忠於獅子會的座右銘「我們服務」 (We Serve),「華人獅子會」籌集的每一分錢都用於慈善事業,而非用於行政支出。
「華人獅子會」尤其感到自豪的是對獅子會醫學研究基金(Lions Medical Research Foundation)的持久支持,先後籌得超過 20 萬元,支持癌症、糖尿病、免疫學等領域的突破性研究。透過品格選舉(Personality Quest)、聖誕愛心活動(Christmas Love Campaign)和「防盲治盲基金」(Campaign SightFirst)等項目,我們的獅子會持續為最需要幫助的人倡導健康、包容與希望。
我們的會員涵蓋各個年齡層和職業範疇—從年輕的專業人士和學生到企業業主和退休人士。我們的共同點在於相信回饋社會不僅是一種責任,更是一份喜悅。透過這樣的行動,我們獲得領導經驗、友誼,以及創造更美好未來的深層滿足感。
「布里斯本華人獅子會」不僅僅是一個服務團體—我們是各行各業的人們聚集在一起,以善意和使命行動的生動寫照。如果你希望有所作為、建立有意義的關係,並成為比自身更重要事物的一部分,我們歡迎你加入我們。
有需要的地方,就有獅子會—在布里斯本,就有「布里斯本華人獅子會」。
