The Maple Grove Lions support the activities of Lions International and also work very actively within the Maple Grove area donating money and time to further our community and make it a better place to live and work. Check out our  Current Projects page to learn more.

The Maple Grove Lions are always looking for the best way to spend the money that we raise each year. If you know of a worthy cause within the local area that could use the support of the Maple Grove Lions, please fill out our

Request for Charitable Donation form. 

Our charitable review committee will carefully review each request and make a recommendation to our board of directors. Although we cannot possibly satisfy all of the requests that are presented to us, we will respond to every request.

The Maple Grove Lions and the Maple Grove Dande-Lions joined forces and resources to purchase and present 3 infrared scopes to the Maple Grove Fire Department. These scopes are able to detect the bodyheat of a person trapped or incapacitated in a smoke filled building to allow for their rescue. This addition to the firefighters resources may help to save a life.
