CAUSES WE SERVE • DISASTER RELIEF
Disaster Relief
Being first to answer when floods, cyclones and emergencies strike our region.
In a Local Emergency, Every Minute Counts
For life-threatening emergencies always call 112 first. For relief support, reach our club any time.
WHY IT MATTERS
Ready Before It Happens
When disaster strikes, minutes matter. Tamil Nadu knows the cost of cyclones, floods and drought — and recovery always depends on how quickly a community can organise help.
Lions are often among the first on the ground because we already live in the communities we serve. With the backing of Lions Clubs International Foundation grants, local clubs can move fast with relief and stay long for rebuilding.
Be Prepared at Home
- Keep documents in a waterproof pouch
- Store 3 days of water and dry food
- Save emergency numbers: 112, PHC, club helpline
