Protecting the U.P. Environment
OUR MISSION
Healthy Land, Clean Water, Green Communities
Our planet sustains all life, especially here in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. U.P. Lions Serve is committed to protecting and restoring our local environment through hands-on projects and community partnerships.
