UPCOMING EVENTS
CHECK OUT OUR UPCOMING EVENTS
At Lions Assistance Dogs, events are powerful opportunities to connect, celebrate, and create lasting change with our incredible community.
We run and host events to:
- Raise vital funds that directly support the training and placement of life-changing Assistance Dogs.
- Raise awareness about the impact of Assistance Dogs and the difference they make in the lives of Australians in need.
- Build community by bringing together supporters, Lions Clubs, volunteers, recipients, corporate partners and more.
- Celebrate milestones, such as anniversaries, notable numbers of deliveries, and recognise the incredible people and dogs behind our mission.
Every event helps us grow our impact, share our story, and inspire others to get involved. Whether you’re attending, donating, or volunteering, your support makes our work possible.

NATIONAL HEARING DOG DAY
April 19th
Celebrate the life-changing work of Hearing Assistance Dogs across Australia! National Hearing Dog Day raises awareness and funds to support dogs trained to alert to important sounds and provide safety, independence, and connection for people who are Deaf or hard of hearing.

LAP THE MAP
November
Lap the Map is a month-long national event raising funds and awareness for our Diabetic Alert Dogs. Walk, run, swim, or ride to help us collectively lap the map of Australia. Every kilometre and every dollar supports the delivery of professionally trained dogs to Australians living with type 1 diabetes, free of charge.
