President's Message 1 From Lions Pride President

Samuel Kochel As I look back on this past year, I have deep feelings about Lions Pride, about the mission of Lions Pride and about the future mission of Lions Pride.

First, I have a deep sense of gratitude for the donors to Lions Pride. They have made such a profound impact on Lions Pride’s ability to significantly support the Wisconsin Lions’ work in helping people through our state-wide projects carried out by Wisconsin Lions Foundation. Last year, Lions Pride supported the work of Wisconsin Lions Foundation in the amount of $145, 273. Each year, the amount of support grows. The accumulative support given to Wisconsin Lions Foundation is over $613,114. Thank you to over 415 Lions , Lioness and Leo Clubs, 31 foundations, 121 corporation, 36 community groups & 1764 individual, Lions and

non-Lions. I am grateful for their generosity & support. They are “Today’s Help, Tomorrow’s Hope”.

I am grateful too, for the work and support of our Executive Director, Geri Schlender and members of the Lions Pride Board of Directors. I am thankful for their diligence, hard work and financial support to Lions Pride. I am sure that their work and support would be very satisfying and appreciated by the Lions Pride founder, Lion Dewey Carl. Lion Dewey had the dream, he worked hard to establish Lions Pride Endowment Fund and financially supported Lions Pride in a most generous way.

I am grateful to Clubs & individuals that have participated in the Lion Ray Hempel Fellowship Program. Lion Ray Hempel loved the people of Poy Sippi, and served the people of his community in many ways. Lion Ray had the dream that there would be a camp for kids with challenges and worked hard to see that dream come true. I am thankful for Lion Ray’s example of service and for his dream. I am grateful that people who significantly serve in their communities across Wisconsin are being honored Ray Hempel Fellowships.

Second, I am confident that the support of Lions Pride is making a difference in helping people. What Lions Pride gives to Wisconsin Lions Foundation is not just dollars. It is financial support that is used to serve people. The majority of Lions Pride financial support goes to fund Wisconsin Lions Camp. To date, Lions Pride has been able to support our Lions Camp with over $564,779.39

Third, I am hopeful that the financial support of Lions Pride will continue to grow through gifts from estate planning, Ray Hempel Fellowships and donations by people who catch the vision that their service to people in need will continue beyond their lifetime by supporting Lions Pride Endowment Fund through legacy giving.

Thankful, confident and hopeful,
