The Lions of Michigan Service Foundation provides financial assistance and referral services to help uninsured and underinsured Michigan residents with medical needs.  Funding is provided for sight restoration, hearing improvement, medical care/expenses and medically necessary devices/equipment.  All applicants must be sponsored by a Michigan Lions Club or Lions District.

Financial Assistance per client is normally limited to $5,000.  Applications are reviewed quarterly, usually in January, May, July and October.  When it is deemed detrimental to the health or quality of life of an applicant to follow normal procedures, emergency assistance may be authorized.

 

Client Testimonials:

“I am writing on behalf of Mr. Jolly and the Eaton Rapids Lions Club to thank you for your generous gift toward Mr. Jolly’s cataract surgery.  You may remember that he was unable to keep his truck driving license because of his vision, and he was without medical insurance.  I am happy to report that the surgery was a tremendous success, and Mr. Jolly is back to work.  We are very grateful for the help provided by the Lions of Michigan Service Foundation.”

“Thank you Lions – you changed my life.  I am a 40 year-old bookkeeper with no health insurance, and the cataracts that had developed in my eyes were getting so bad, I wasn’t able to work.  I don’t know what I would have done without your help.”
“We want to take this opportunity to thank you one more time for the generous gift you gave my children.  They have had their new speech processors for 2 months and have adjusted well to them.  Now, we are starting to see improvements in the clarity of their speech.  We will never forget what you have helped us accomplish.  Every gain Leanna & Mitchell make in the future will be in part based on your kindness.”
