When Chicago Healthcare Alliance Lions Club (CHALC) was chartered in July, our vision was clear: leading the healthcare and advocating for the underserved and underprivileged in Chicago. The global health emergency taught us enduring lessons and highlighted the unwavering support of the medical community, including our Lions.
Despite pandemic setbacks and losses, our commitment to quality healthcare persists. Tonight, with the support of Lions International, we move a step close to our goal. As President of CHALC, I’m honored to accept this charter on behalf of our Lions, pledging hard work and dedication in service.
United by our desire to help, we face challenges together, making positive impact on the lives of the less fortunate. As Lions, our supreme purpose is to serve others.
From this night onward, we give new meaning to the words: We serve! CHALC, as a whole, serves from the heart, valuing each member for their genuine intention to care and serve.
Together, we are changing the world.
Keep roaring, Dear Lions!
Lea S. Agaton, BSN, BSBA, RN, PMJF

Our seniors deserve to live with dignity, respect, and security. Unfortunately, many older adults become targets of scams, fraud, financial exploitation, and other forms of abuse by individuals who take advantage of their trust and vulnerability. Raising awareness and providing education are essential steps in protecting the well-being of our elderly population.
At Chicago Healthcare Alliance Lions Club, we remain committed to advocating for, supporting, and safeguarding our seniors from all forms of abuse and exploitation. Through community outreach, education, and empowerment, we strive to ensure that our elderly community members have the knowledge and resources they need to protect themselves and maintain their independence.
A heartfelt thank you to Lion Sharon Perez for generously sharing her knowledge, expertise, and valuable insights on recognizing and preventing scams and elder abuse. Your dedication to educating and empowering our seniors is truly appreciated.
We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to all the volunteers whose time, compassion, and hard work made this event another successful and meaningful community service initiative. We will continue to make a positive difference in the lives of those we serve.
Protecting our seniors is everyone’s responsibility. When we care for and empower our elderly, we build stronger, safer, and more compassionate communities for all.
