Funding

The Wisconsin Lions Foundation touches thousands of lives. Club donations support the majority of the Foundation’s projects. In addition, people outside Lionism make contributions to our efforts. These take the form of memorials for deceased friends and family members. The Foundation also receives cash gifts to offset operational costs. Many people have been impressed by its activities and have willed sums of money, securities, or land.  The Foundation has a 501 (c)(3) IRS tax status that allows donations to be deductible from both state and federal taxes as allowed by law.  To learn more: How to Donate
