Food at Old Age Home, Educational Projects for School children, Anaajdaan & Medical Help to
needy are going very well. Special mentioned to be made for the Tree Plantation Project –
Atmanirbhar Kisaan. Our Club took lead or this project last year and this year also the same trend
continues with Adoption of 200 more farmers which mean 10,000 Fruit trees were planted. I would
like to Congratulate you for your efforts and thank you for continuing the project this year.

From the Editor’s Desk
Hi Lion Friends,
As our club enters in this new glorious year of Lionism post pandemic that posed unprecedented
challenges to humanity, I take this opportunity to welcome our new members to our Lions Club of
Mumbai Mahavir Nagar family. We have now learned to not only live with this pandemic but also
continue serving our community that needs us Lions more than ever in these trying times. We have
truly lived our slogan of the year of being a ray of Hope to the needy, help them improve their lives
and become a source of happiness for the less privileged.
This platform of the Lions Clubs has helped us all likeminded individuals to connect in a well-
structured way and serve our community. This bulletin is a small effort to provide all members and
the Lions community in general a glimpse of the activities of the club in recent times, spread the word
about Lionism and inspire them to contribute more ideas / resources to better serve humanity to the
best of our capacity. We continue to carry out various projects in the fields of health and hygiene,
environment protection, education, hunger relief, financial support to the needy, creating an
atmosphere of self-reliance for the needy and many more. I would like to thank Immediate past
District governor Lion Shashikant Modh for his guidance, President Lion Vipul Modi, Secretary Lion
Prakash Bhatia and entire Lions club of Mumbai Mahavir Nagar for giving me this great opportunity
to create bulletins for this year.
Warm Regards,
Lion Parag Ashar
Bulletin Editor
