~we serve~

It is the Hopkinton Lions Club’s mission to serve others in our community. Through our fundraising events and our supportive sponsors we are able to provide much needed services to numerous local non-profit organizations.

Hopkinton Lions meet every other Tuesday

at Saint Andrew’s Church at 6:30pm.

Community Service

The Hopkinton Lions work year round raising funds for scholarships and the local food pantry. They also provide school children with sophisticated eye exams, distribute dictionaries to students. The Lions help with special projects in town, work with the local scouts’ food drive and more.

The annual Lions
Gigantic Yard Sale

The first weekend in June is the biggest fundraising event of the year. The Lions collect donations that are sold at the Hopkinton Fair Grounds. This is a most popular event, with people coming from all over. The sale is a labor of love and requires untold hours of effort from the club members. All proceeds from the sale go toward the Lions Scholarship Fund.

Unfortunately, this event is postponed.

Since the Lions cannot participate on the largest fundraiser of 2022 for the college scholarship fund for the Hopkinton High School seniors, please consider making a donation this year by clicking the scholarship donation button. We thank you.
