It’s 1.4 million caring men and women serving together so they can make a lasting impact and change more lives.

Meet the 2025-2026 Board of Directors
This year, under the powerful theme “Accept the Challenge: United in Service,” we are called not only to act, but to act together. The world needs our kindness, our strength, and our unwavering commitment now more than ever – and I have every confidence that we are ready to rise to that call. To “Accept the Challenge” is to step forward boldly, with purpose and heart. It means seeking opportunities where others see obstacles. It means being willing to stretch, to grow, and to serve in new ways. And when we say, “United in Service,” we are embracing our greatest strength: each other. From seasoned Lions and Leos with years of wisdom to brand new members with fresh eyes and ideas, we stand side by side, guided by our shared mission of service.

aboutus
On April 16, 1993, the Lions Club of Tropical Gardens (LCTG) was sanctioned as duly formed by Lions International, and on May 8, 1993, 30 ladies were inducted with Lion Patricia McField (a past president of the Leo Club of Grand Cayman) chosen to be its charter president.
The Lions Club of Tropical Gardens took up the challenge and began its work in the community, making regular visits to the elderly at home and at the Pines Retirement Home, assisting with many projects within the primary and high schools, the Lighthouse School for the Handicapped, and the Young Parents Program, counseling at the Fairbanks Prison (women’s prison). It also adopted Lions International Sight Program, bringing awareness of various diseases to the public (Lupus, Diabetes Osteoporosis, etc).
The Tropical Gardens Club is best known though for its Breast Cancer awareness campaign in October each year when it conducts awareness meetings in each district on Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac and partners with the Health Services Authority (George Town Hospital) in hosting breast cancer clinics. Doctors, pharmacists and other medical professionals address breast cancer issues and highlight new developments and treatment of the disease. Literature is provided and free mammogram vouchers are given out to women age 40 and older, and to younger women who have a family history of Breast Cancer.

Together We Serve
Empowering Our service
Every journey begins with a single step. One act of service, one encouraging word, one gift of generosity is often all it takes to bring hope where it’s needed most.
Over the last 100 years, the kindness of Lions and Leos has multiplied across borders, oceans, and continents. With over 1.4 million members, we now have an opportunity to truly change our world.
That’s why we’re uniting our global service around five areas of need. These Global Causes present significant challenges to humanity, and we believe it’s our turn to meet them.

Diabetes Education and Awareness
One of our main causes here at Lions Club of Tropical Gardens is Diabetes Education and Awareness, Diabetes is a health issue that touches many lives, particularly those in the Cayman Islands. We spend a significant portion of our resources on tackling this problem. Our club continues to educate the community and spread awareness by providing free health clinics.


Geriatrics and Social Services
One of our goals is to ensure that the most vulnerable and at-risk groups in the Cayman Islands are safe and have their basic needs taken care of. Currently we volunteer and provide resources to the Pines Retirement home, the Golden Age Home, Meals on Wheels, the local hospitals and senior citizens in need.
