The Middletown Lions club has raised millions of dollars over the years. While funding is important, it is not only about funding. Lions seek high quality projects with lasting value and meaningful impact on lives.  One example in the last few years has been our club's focus in being a leading contributor in working hard to revitalize Camp Happiness.  This 100 year old camp for the blind on the Sandy Hook Bay (part of New Jersey Blind Citizens Association) serves blind children and adults with active day programs and an adult summer camp program. Blind individuals who might otherwise live in greater isolation are availed opportunities improve their quality of life.  For more on our work at Camp Happiness visit www.NJBCA.org and view the Video about Camp Happiness.
