Serving the community

For over 20 years, our Lions Club has proudly partnered with the Norbertine Sisters of Zsámbék to provide essential food supplies to families in need throughout the region. Each month, we deliver donations to the Sisters, who distribute these supplies to struggling families, offering critical support to those who rely on this help to get by. This long-standing collaboration has become a cornerstone of our commitment to serving the community.

The food delivery is made possible thanks to the generosity of donors and the success of our fundraising activities, particularly the annual Gala Concert, which plays a key role in funding this initiative. By coming together as a community—through contributions, participation in our events, and our partnership with the Norbertine Sisters—we ensure that families in need receive the help they deserve.

Our Lions Club is deeply grateful for the continued support that makes this meaningful work possible, and we remain dedicated to making a difference.

Proud First Graders

At the start of the school year, children eagerly wish for a great, colorful school bag. For many families, school bags are unaffordable. From the very first day of school, these children experience the humiliation of being socially excluded.

We have made it our Lions Club mission to collect good used school bags within our network of partner clubs in Sulzbach, Berlin, and Frankfurt. In addition, we collect used school bags from Hungarian schools.

We clean and sort the school bags of which many contain extras and small gifts from the children who donated them – a heartfelt gesture. Thanks to generous donations, we are able to equip every school bag with a comprehensive starter kit.

Our Lions Club works with various reputable private and state aid organizations in Hungary to ensure that only truly needy children receive a school bag. Help us expand this project by collecting used school bags or by contributing with a financial or in-kind donation to support the starter kits.

Making a difference together

Become part of a strong community dedicated to social engagement, achieving good together, and experiencing cultural events. Help us make the world a better place – we look forward to meeting you!

A bag full of joy and appreciation

Every year, our Lions Club organizes a special initiative: we pack and distribute 900 lovingly filled St. Nicholas bags to elderly people, those in need, and children with disabilities. This effort represents more than just gifts – it brings joy, appreciation, and a message of solidarity.

Together with our members, their families, and friends, we join forces in a concerted effort, packing the bags with great enthusiasm and dedication. The generous donations from our sponsors make this initiative possible.

But we aim to achieve even more: our goal is to surpass the magical threshold of 1,000 bags! To make this happen, we are looking for additional committed sponsors to help us bring smiles to even more faces. Together, we can make the world a little brighter. Join us!

Beloved tradition

Our Lions Club proudly hosts an annual event dedicated to supporting families in need. In collaboration with the Norbertine Sisters in Zsámbék, who generously provide their kitchen and dining hall, Lions members and friends come together to prepare 350 meals. Professional chefs volunteer to supervise, ensuring the highest quality for this meaningful initiative.

Alongside the cooking, we organize a lively entertainment program for children, making the day unforgettable for families. Kids delight in the activities, while parents enjoy the welcoming, vibrant atmosphere.

For our Lions members, it’s a day of dedication and joy. Though the hours are demanding, the smiles of children and gratitude of families make it deeply rewarding. Donations and charity events fund the ingredients and children’s activities, ensuring the success of this beloved annual tradition.

Advent
Concert

Magical year end

The annual Advent Concert of the Lions Club is a cozy charity event held in the charming setting of a wine cellar in Budapest. With a maximum of 45 guests, it offers an intimate atmosphere that captivates music lovers.

Internationally renowned musicians present a carefully curated program that touches the hearts of attendees year after year. Many guests value the unique combination of world-class music and the warm, almost private setting.

However, this concert is more than just a musical delight. Proceeds from ticket sales and donations make a significant contribution to our charitable projects.

For us Lions, it also serves as a festive conclusion to a successful year – a moment of reflection, togetherness, and gratitude.

An evening that unites culture and charity, leaving guests inspired and looking forward to the year ahead.
