EXTRAORDINARY WORK
Kiwanis, through guidance and example, works
to develop future generations of leaders. Every day, Kiwanians are revitalizing
neighborhoods, organizing youth-sports programs, planting trees, building playgrounds, and
performing countless other projects to help children and communities.
At the District Convention in Fargo, clubs collected and packaged
snacks and personal care items for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Over 1250 pounds of
supplies were collected, filling 260 flat rate boxes. Several of the troops wrote and
expressed their gratitude for the project, and it is heartwarming to read their replies.
All District Kiwanians can take pride in the difference we have made in their lives.

What is a Kiwanian?
Kiwanis Name
The name “Kiwanis” means “we trade” or “we share our
talents.” It was coined from an American Indian expression, Nunc Kee-wanis.
Kiwanians are volunteers changing the world through service to
children and communities. Kiwanis members help shelter the homeless, feed the hungry,
mentor the disadvantaged, and care for the sick. They develop youth as leaders, build
playgrounds, raise funds for pediatric research, and much more. No problem is too big or
too small. Why? Because working together, members achieve what one person cannot
accomplish alone. When you give a child a chance to learn, experience, dream, and succeed,
great things happen!
As Kiwanis clubs and members, we see it everyday!

To serve children of the world.
Service

Global Results
Members and clubs have contributed more than $80 million toward the global elimination of

Grow our club
Once, someone saw a need in our community and decided a Kiwanis
club could best fill that need. Today, many children are still
waiting for the kind of help Kiwanis members like you provide. The
most effective way to reach those in need is to ensure your club
stays strong, grows larger, and steps up when needed. It takes a
lot of work to make a difference.
