14 April 2022 – NZ moves to orange light tonight. Check the government Covid-19 site for more information about this stage.
What do we do?
• we help people in our community by giving our time and skills
• we raise money for worthy local causes and national charities
• we have fun and enjoy being together
Who are we?
We’re everyday people who like to help others. We give up our time and energy so we can make a positive difference in our community. We also fundraise for communities in need around the world.
Is it just a NZ thing?
The Rangiora Lions Club is one of thousands of Lions clubs worldwide.
Lions is the world’s largest volunteer service organisation with over 1.4 million people. Although we don’t know most of them, we get on pretty well with those we meet, achieve great things in our community and have a lot of fun doing it.
How does our community benefit?
Rangiora Lions directly help community groups and individuals in the North Cantebury area. Also, our community (and country) can benefit from humanitarian funding from the international Lions organisation. For instance, Lions gave over $1 million to help Christchurch rebuild after the city was rocked by earthquakes in 2010/11.
How do I join the Rangiora Lions Club?
If this looks and sounds like something you’d be into, have a look around the site and find out more.
Membership is by club member invite and you’d get a better idea if you took part in an activity or two before deciding.

Partnering with community groups and schools is something Lions love to do!We’re pleased to be partnering with Rangiora Lions Club on a number of initiatives in 2022 - including the “Heads up for Kids - Old Money for New Value” promotion.
Do you have old coins - NZ or otherwise - sitting in a drawer at home? Lions can put them to great use - we have a container at our school reception, and we appreciate your contributions!

Well done there team.
This little ditty about our piggy poo
It shows Lions dedication just for you
Saturday comes, we really want to stay in bed.
But no! up we jump and out we head
To the heap there you will find
Our friends from Lions
From our 'hood
Bagging poo that does so good
Banter sure does fly around
Some of it even hits the ground
The baggers there I will not name
They may be there to seek some fame
The trailer team they mean so much
To do their deliveries without fuss,
Delivering anywhere within the 'hood
They know they're out there doing good.
Courtesy of one of our fabulous members!
