The Sunshine Lions Club was Charted on the 15th July 1953.

​

Since the club came in to being it has been an integral part of the Sunshine community. Many projects of the club were well known to the residents of the Sunshine area including: Sunshine Carnival, The Lions Annual Bonfire, Miss Sunshine Quest and many others.

​

The Club has been involved in raising funds for many institutions in the area, such as: Sunshine Swimming Pool, Mercy Hospice, Helping Hand Association, Sunshine Hospital & Sunshine Traffic School.

​

One of the main projects of the club was the construction of a purpose built Elderly Citizens Centre. The building in Watt St, Sunshine served as a community centre for nearly 50 years before being sold and converted to a church.
