Melvin Jones Fellows
Humanitarian service is the goal of all Lions. The
association was founded for the purpose of serving others and in so doing, make
the world a better place. In 1973, the association and Lions Club International
Foundation recognized the need to establish a special commendation for a
particular dimension of service. As a result, the Melvin Jones Fellowship was
created. The fellowship is not an award, rather it is a recognition given to
humanitarians. The fellowship is named as a tribute to the founder of Lions Club
International, Melvin Jones. Designated as LCIF's highest honor, the fellowship
symbolizes those attributes characteristic of individuals who are dedicated to
humanitarian service, attributes such as generosity, compassion, and concern for
others.
