Local Lions Clubs and other trained volunteers provide free health screenings for schools, the general public at health fairs, retirement homes, and businesses. The Foundation has portable screening technology to provide both hearing and vision screenings. If your organization has an event coming up and would like to reserve our equipment, please review the Screening Reservation Process below.
Over the years, the Lions have provided thousands of free health screenings to children, the elderly, and community members who are struggling with financial hardships. Foundation services remain free to community members through donations and volunteered time. Donations to the Idaho Lions Sight and Hearing Foundation may be earmarked for the Community Health Screening program, 100% of your donation would assist community members see, hear, and live better.
