Splash Festivals is proud to support the charities and programs of the Norcross Lions Club with proceeds from Norcross Art Fest.  Through the efforts of the Lions Club, “problems get smaller and the communities get better.”  That is because they help where help is needed—in our own communities and around the world—with unmatched integrity and energy. Internationally, 45,000 clubs and more than 1.35 million members make them the world’s largest service club organization.  They are also one of the most effective.  Lions are focused on helping the blind and sight impaired. The Norcross Club provides leader dogs for the blind; cornea transplants in cooperation with Emory University; eyeglasses for those in financial distress, especially school children; an annual camp for blind children located in Waycross and book recordings for the blind.  They also contribute to other charities like the Local Cooperative Ministry and the American Cancer Society.  The Norcross Club even recognizes, each school month, a Norcross high student outstanding in academics and service to his/her community or school with a certificate and $100 check.  Norcross Art Fest provides significant funding for all of the above Lions activities and more.
