Lions District 4-L2 comprises of Lions clubs in the Eastern Los Angeles County section of Southern California. We extend from Long Beach on the south to Pasadena on the north to Covina/West Covina on the east. We consist of nearly 50 clubs and over 1200 Lions!
The Lions and Leos of District 4-L2 serve their communities and help those in need through a wide variety of fund raising efforts, such as the All Arabian Horse Show and Sight For Kids Wine Tasting events of Whittier Host, the Tour-de-Sewer bicycle ride of Bell Gardens, and the Santa Maria Style BBQ in Long Beach. We also coordinate the decorating efforts for the Lions International Rose Parade entry each year in Pasadena. Each club provides many services to their community, such as: eye exams and eyeglasses for needy students, monetary support to many charitable groups and hands on help.
