Typically, the Projects Committee meets every other month to evaluate proposals received. Proposals should include a background of your agency, describe the population you serve, specifics of your request, and how the specific request will help your organization and your clients. Note that we typically will not provide funding for multiple years. Organizations not previously funded by Lubbock Lions Club may be requested to provide documentation of their non-profit status. If you are allocated funds, you will be requested to attend one of our weekly meetings in order to receive the check and provide the membership with a short synopsis of how the funding will be used.
