Lions Code of Ethics
TO SHOW my faith in the worthiness of my vocation
by industrious application to the end that I may merit a
reputation for quality of service. TO SEEK success and to demand all fair
remuneration or profit as my just due, but to accept no
profit or success at the price of my own self-respect
lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of
questionable acts on my part. TO REMEMBER that in building up my business it is
not necessary to tear down another's; to be loyal to my
clients or customers and true to myself. WHENEVER a doubt arises as to the right or ethics
of my position or action towards others, to resolve such
doubts against myself. TO HOLD friendship as an end and not a means. To
hold that true friendship exists not on account of the
service performed by one another, but that true
friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the
spirit in which it is given. ALWAYS to bear in mind my obligations as a
citizen to my nation, my state, and my community, as to
give them my unswerving loyalty in word, act, and deed.
To give them freely of my time, labor and means. TO AID others by giving my sympathy to those in
distress, my aid to the weak, and my substance to the
needy. TO BE CAREFUL with my criticism and liberal with
my praise; to build up and not destroy.
