CLUB FUNDRAISING PROJECTS
The West Allis West Lions Club is involved in a number of "Fundraising" projects. The proceeds of these efforts enable us to provide financial support to Community, State, National and International individuals and organizations. Every dollar raised through these efforts is distributed to our designated cause.
White Cane Days
are held three or four times per year at shopping centers in the West Allis
community. Our next White Cane Day will be held on Sat, April
9, 2011 from 9:00am - 3:00pm at the Sentry Food Store located at S 102 & W.
National Ave in West Allis.
Chili Cook-Off is one of our newer projects held in
the month of February. Several different Chili recipes are available
for you to sample (as much as you want). You vote for your favorite to
give bragging rights to the cook. Raffles and a Bake sale are also
offered. The 2011 event was a great success. Watch for the 2012
date.

Aluminum Can Recycling - this project is new for us and a place for the general public to deposit their aluminum cans is still being developed. However our members have been recycling for a time and the proceeds are becoming significant.
Tent Party - We held hour first tent party in June of 2010 and plan to make this an annual event. We offer great food, soda and beer to our guests. Some great raffle prizes are available as well as a silent auction. Our D.J. serves up some great tunes to set a great festival atmosphere. We hope to see you at our next fun filled Summer event.

We will tally up you points while you enjoy some great food. Raffles are available and awards will be presented. The next Safari will be held on Oct 9, 2011
