Kiwanis Club of Prineville
The Prineville Kiwanis Club is a community service organization
that focuses on helping the youth of the community. Kiwanis Clubs

September and a See’s Candy sale in December. These fundraisers

Lions Club International of Prineville

Location:
Apple Peddler Restaurant, 1485 N.E. Third Street
The Prineville Lions Club sponsors many community projects
with priority being given to providing vision and hearing care for
the needy as funding allows. Lions assist in couriering to transport
donated eye-tissue to the Oregon Lions Sight and Hearing
Foundation and Oregon Eyebank for transplant and research. Each
year, the Prineville Lions Club provides hearing and vision tests and
hearing aids and glasses to needy citizens of Crook County in coop-
eration with the Volunteer Services Program. The Lions collect
used eye-glasses and hearing aids for redistribution overseas to
third-world nations. Look for the white collection boxes with the
Lions logo on them in public buildings. Additionally, the group also
collects and recycles cell phones, printer ink cartridges, and news-
papers. Money from this part of the recycling goes back into pur-
chasing new glasses and hearing aids. The Prineville Lions Club
has celebrated many years of service to the community since its
charter beginning in October of 1938, the first civic club of
Prineville.
