District 14M Lions of Pennsylvania is made up of Fayette, Green, Somerset and Washington counties and the "We Serve" committee is the non-profit arm of the district. The money will be used to install an elevator system in the Bentworth Community Center, which houses the Bentleyville Public Library, the Bentworth Senior Citizens Center and the Bentleyville Historical Society. The Bentleyville, Scenery Hill and Eighty Four Lions, the Bentleyville Lioness Club, and the Bentleyville LEO Club also collected funding towards this project.
