Become a Lion

Community Volunteer Work that Makes a Difference

If you’re interested in volunteering, leading projects, networking and having fun – you can do all of this and more as a Lions club member. As a Lion, you’ll perform local volunteer work to improve your community – and communities around the world.

You can join a local club that meets in person. A cyber club that meets online. Or a special interest club based on your profession, a hobby or anything you care about. You can plan a local project to protect the environment. Recycle eyeglasses to help the working poor. Or bring clean water to a remote village. Whatever you choose, you’ll be sharing, caring and making a difference.

Join an International Network of Volunteers and Friends

As a Lions club member, you’ll join a local group of service-minded men and women who are doing local volunteer work to support your community – right now. You’ll also become a member of Lions Clubs International, a respected international organization, a leader in your local community and a friend to people in need.

There are many reasons to become a member. As a Lion, you can:

  • Help your community and gain valuable skills
  • Make an impact on people’s lives – locally and internationally
  • Learn to be a leader – and lead a respected organization
  • Network with business people in your community and around the world
  • Energize your life and have fun

You’ll grow personally and professionally. And you’ll know that the community volunteer work you perform is worthwhile and appreciated.

"Make Your Mark"

With a remarkable background in business administration, including a Post-Graduate Degree in Business Administration (MBA) from Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV), and a Degree in Administration, International President Fabrício brings a wealth of experience and expertise to his new role.

"There are countless ways to make a difference in communities all around the world and I am proud to belong to an organization that reaches people in need everywhere," said Oliveira. "My hope for this year serving as Lions International President is to inspire many more service-minded volunteers to join our wonderful organization."

A dedicated member of the Catolé do Rocha Lions Club since 1985, International President Oliveira has held numerous leadership positions within the association, from club president to international director. His commitment to service and leadership has been recognized with several awards, including the prestigious Ambassador of Good Will Award, the highest honor bestowed by the association. The businessman has also received a Key Award for helping induct thirty new Lions members, an Extension Certificate for sponsoring five new Leo clubs, Global Vision Medal for his SightFirst efforts and a Lions Clubs International Foundation Helping Hands Award.

In addition to his contributions to Lions Clubs International, International President Oliveira is actively involved in various professional and community organizations. He has served as the Secretary of Industry and Commerce of the State of Paraiba, as well as in leadership roles in several companies and industry associations.

"Each and every Lion and Leo brings a unique skillset and contribution to Lions International," said Oliveira. "No matter one's talents, interests or financial situation, there is always an opportunity to make a difference as a Lion."

International President Fabrício is joined in his commitment to service by his wife, Amariles, also a dedicated member of the Catolé do Rocha Lions Club and a Melvin Jones Fellow. Together, they have three children and a granddaughter.
