GET INVOLVED

There are many ways to support Lions across South Dakota.

Every act of service—big or small—helps children see clearly, helps adults access care, and strengthens communities across our state. Whether you have time, resources, or simply want to spread the word, there’s a place for you in this mission.

Volunteer Your Time

Volunteers make our statewide vision screening program possible. No experience is needed—just a willingness to help.

  • Help at Kidsight vision screenings

  • Support community events and outreach

Become a Lion

Lions Clubs are the backbone of service in South Dakota. When you join a club, you join neighbors who care deeply about improving vision, hearing, and community well‑being.

  • Serve locally

  • Build friendships

Schools, daycares, and community groups can request on‑site vision screenings. We provide the equipment, training, and support to make it easy.

  • Free for schools and early‑learning centers
