needs

business people who have both the desire and the ability to serve
their community

are conducted once a week and offer an atmosphere of fun, learning,
and fellowship. In addition to attending the meetings, the typical

Kiwanis
Name
The name “Kiwanis” means “we trade” or “we share our talents.” It was coined
from an American Indian expression, Nunc Kee-wanis.
|
Service projects often are linked to the Kiwanis program,
“Young Children: Priority One.” This initiative places continuing focus
on the needs of children in pediatric trauma, safety, child care, early
development, infant health, nutrition, and parenting skills.
Service projects also can address other needs within
the community, such as working to stop substance abuse, helping the elderly,
promoting literacy, supporting youth sports and recreation, responding
to disasters, and supporting specific persons in need.
