Connections through Service
Welcome to SOLA Lions Club
Serving with Heart. Leading with Purpose.
The Special Olympics Los Angeles (SOLA) Lions Club is one of the first specialty clubs dedicated to supporting Special Olympics athletes year-round. We bring people together to serve with purpose, build friendships, and create inclusive communities.
โVolunteering with SOLA has filled my life with lasting friendships and a community Iโll always treasure.โ
