We have begun the task of securing the LION™ registered ® trade mark. The total cost of the work and registration fees are considerable, however, we have received a number of pledges of support of over $100 [donations received to date exceed $1,000!] We need to raise $1,500 (fifteen hundred dollars USD). There are nearly 19,000 currently registered members of the LIONs™ and you are all now invited to support your group with a simple pledge, a donation towards this cause. Everyone who makes a donation, no matter how small, can have their name featured in a special invite me list to over 25,000 registered LIONs™ - watch your network grow! Whether you pledge a $1 or $1000 it will go to help secure the name and end the arguments and debates that have raged about our rights to call ourselves LIONs™ once and for all. Remember the smaller the donation the larger the PayPal Commission.
