Lionsjahr 2026/2027
With all my Heart
Message from the Council Chairperson for the Lions year 2026/2027
A girl, perhaps ten years old. A braid, rubber boots, loud laughter. She ran across the meadow as if she had never done anything else.
And yet, she had cancer.
I stood at the edge of this holiday camp run by Kinderkrebshilfe Schweiz and no longer knew whether to cry or smile. So I did both. Because what I saw was not a tragedy. It was defiant, wonderful life. And it was possible also because Lions were there.
This moment from my Governor year 2023/24 stays with me to this day. It reminds me, and it should remind all of us, why we do this. Not because of meetings. Not because of statutes. Because of moments like these.
Lions is a worldwide movement of people who take action. I am proud that this year, together, all three districts are standing behind Kinderkrebshilfe Schweiz. Behind the holiday camps. Behind the children on the meadow. Three districts, one heart.
Whether you have been part of Lions for many years or have only just joined: this feeling you sensed is no coincidence. Pass it on. Show it. Live it.
WHAT THIS IS NOT ABOUT
The strongest advertisement for Lions is not a flyer.
WHAT THIS IS ABOUT
It is the girl with the braid and the rubber boots.
MY PROMISE
With all my Heart. That is my promise and my invitation.
