Glenside Lions donated $2000 to the Lions Medical Research Foundation of South Australia in May. Since 2000, the Foundation has funded twelve post graduate PhD scholarships at a cost of close to $500,000 researching a wide range of health related areas. This has allowed the development of strong ongoing relationships with both Adelaide and Flinders University. Each and every year, millions of men and women worldwide, die as a result of diseases that are, for the most part, significantly preventable. Ongoing and mounting research especially over the past decade accentuates this fact. Our quest for meaningful and relevant research and education that may enable health professionals to better prevent, detect, and cure disease/injury propels the Foundation continuously onwards and forward.
