Lions District 33Y is located in the western part of the state of Massachusetts and encompasses the counties of Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden and Hampshire. We are comprised of 40 Lions Clubs, 2 Lioness Clubs and 5 (soon to be 6) Leo Clubs made up of almost 1400 men, women and youths. We have come together for a common cause, that of helping others.

At the 1925 Lions International Convention, Helen Keller challenged the Lions to become "Knights of the Blind". Since that time, we have become identified with sight conservation, helping others obtain eyeglasses, vision surgery and eye research. We have expanded beyond sight conservation into diabetes awareness and research because of the large effect diabetes has on sight impairment. And into hearing research and assistance.

But the Lions are more than sight conservation. We also assist in the education and development of our youth, in aid to the elderly, in a multitude of other worthwhile endeavors.

Below you will find links identifying the leaders of our District, to programs of our District, to the calendar listing club and district events, and to some of the clubs that make up our district with further explanations of what those clubs do. Please look through our site.

Thank You.
