Though much of our contribution is in the form of volunteer labor, our ability to make monetary contributions depends on our fund-raising success.

      Each May we hold our famous "White Cane" program, soliciting funds for the NW Lions Foundation for Sight and Hearing. This money helps support our Eye Bank in the process of transferring corneal tissue from donors to transplant recipients.

      For many years on Armed Forces Day, prior the parade, we host our annual Pancake Breakfast on Fourth Street in downtown Bremerton. Proceeds from this event allow us to give at least one $1000 scholarship to a worthy Bremerton High School student each year

      Over the Labor Day weekend, we sell blackberry "slugs", a delicious pastry with blackberry filling, on the Bremerton Boardwalk during the annual Blackberry Festival. A portion of the proceeds are dedicated to support our programs for the assisting the hearing impaired.

      Through the years we have maintained a "Recycling Committee" dealing with the recycling of aluminum cans and newspapers, which are taken to dumpsters at various shopping centers.

      In the fall we host a Seafood Dinner/Auction, which has become quite popular and is one of our major fund-raisers.

      We raise additional funds through the sale of mints at business establishments throughout the community.

      On the average each year, we will realize over $20,000 dollars to fund the projects we have dedicated ourselves to.
