LIONS 108 SQUAD – Disaster Response Team (2026–2027)
In times of crisis, true service is measured by action. The Lions 108 Squad is a bold and action-driven district initiative by Lions District 3232 B1, created to build a dedicated force of trained volunteers ready to respond to emergencies and disasters with speed, skill, and compassion.
