One of the most important services that the Men's Club provides to our communities is that of Lifeline. Lifeline is a personal emergency response system that allows someone living alone to connect quickly with trained responders in an emergency.

More than 500 calls for help are made annually using the system, many resulting in timely transport to medical care when necessary.
