About the club

A window into local society, a platform for friendship

Through friendship and mutual understanding, we create synergy to raise funds for locally identified charity projects.

Lions Club Maastricht Mondial (LCMM) is a gender-mixed international club. Our members live in the Maastricht Euregion: foreign experts who made the region their home, and local professionals with an international background and a cross-cultural mindset.

Our club has an open character. We warmly welcome your ideas and suggestions to help us serve better, in the spirit of the worldwide Lions motto “We Serve.”
