Since its founding on May 3, 1933, the Helena Lions Club has been serving the Helena community. Today, more than 70 men and women contribute their time and efforts in service to our Capitol City and the surrounding area.

The Helena Lions Club is in District 37N.

The first Lions Club was founded in 1917 in Chicago, Illinois, by Melvin Jones, a Chicago insurance man. Mr. Jones was inspired to challenge local business clubs to look beyond their businesses and professional concerns. He felt that these influential business men could use their talents to make an unselfish difference, considering the welfare of others and the betterment of their own local communities, and the global community as well.
