BEVERLY RIDGE LIONS CLUB held a FREE vision & hearing event

50 Screening & Hearing Tests Performed!

The motto the 𝗕𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗥𝗶𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗼𝗻’𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯 is “𝗪𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲”. Lions provide assistance to many causes, but our North Stars pertain to Vision and Hearing. Your local Lions Club prioritizes serving the needs of their local community, so for the Beverly Ridge Lions Club, it’s natural for them to look for ways to serve the Beverly community. To gain further leverage when serving the community, they team up with other local organizations.

Recently, the club teamed up with the 95th Street Business Association and coordinated with them to provide free vision and hearing tests at their Farmer’s Market event on Sunday, June 29th. The Lions of Illinois Foundation supplied a truck outfitted to provide these testing services.
