Leading. Serving. Growing. Together.

Our Mission:  To empower volunteers to serve their communities, meet humanitarian needs, encourage peace, and promote international understanding through Lions clubs.

Who are we?

The Minneapolis Downtown Next Gen Lions Club is a group of service-driven individuals dedicated to positively impacting our community. Through innovation and collaboration, we work with local and global partners to address key causes like hunger, vision care, and childhood cancer, creating lasting change and building a stronger, more connected Minneapolis.

Our foundation is built on the spirit of 'We Serve'—a guiding principle that drives everything we do, from uplifting our communities to creating lasting impact through compassionate service.
