Every month, Fairfax Lions pick up hundreds of pairs of donated used eyeglasses. The eyeglasses are cleaned, inspected, sorted by correction, and given to medical mission teams going around the world with “The Gift of Sight.” The processing is done at the Northern VA Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center.

Lions – WE SERVE!

The Red Cross national blood product supply has fallen by more than 25% since July 1. The Red Cross is working with hospitals around the clock to meet the blood needs of patients – but can’t do it alone. We need donors, like you, to help provide this lifesaving care.  Sign-up NOW!

For 2024, we cannot offer Navel Oranges in our Citrus Sales…because of “citrus greening.” The disease is persistent and the quality of the navel oranges is a major concern; we only want the best fruit for our customers. Click for info on Greening

We are pleased to offer: Fresh Florida mandarins and ruby red grapefruit, Vermont maple syrup, Whitley’s Virginia peanuts, and in-the-shell Peanuts from Texas Roadhouse; all proceeds to Lions charity programs in the Fairfax area.

FX Lions will offer a new item this fall, in our charity fund raiser Citrus Sales. We partnered with Texas Roadhouse to sell 7oz bags of salted-in-the-shell peanuts. Each bag comes with a “free appetizer” Texas Roadhouse coupon. We greatly appreciate your support of our fund raisers; ALL PROCEEDS TO CHARITY!
