On the formation of NOIDA as one of the biggest Industrial city of UP(India) in 1980, It was felt necessary by the Industrialists & Prominent Citizens to perform their social and moral responsibility. They need a platform from where they can serve for the upliftment of the poor and needy villagers of Noida and its neighborhood. Lion Rajiv Mittal took the initiative to form a group of such persons and get them associated with the most reputed Charitable International Society. On 2nd October 1987 under his dynamic leadership, “ LIONS CLUB DELHI-NOIDA ” was formed with the help of 21 more generous persons as member of the club. On 22 nd May 1988 , the club got formal Charter from “ LIONS CLUBS INTERNATIONAL “ as one of their clubs attached to Lion Distt.321A1 .
