How we get the word out

February 13th, 2011

 Our local Auburn Lewiston Kiwanis Club recently received awards from the district level for getting the word out to the public. Club information is shared by Doug Dwinal, Andrew Choate, Ruth Decoster, either by press release to local papers, newsletter, or on our website and on Facebook. It is so important to show what Kiwanis does for the community. If you’d like to be part of bettering our community, contact us above or just call us at 795-9614. We’d love to have you!

  • Feb. 8th; 8pm: Til Death Do We Part    Many members drop out of their club for perfectly understandable reasons, but most leave for reasons that could have been prevented. Learn the best practices used by successful club for retaining active members.
  • Feb. 15th; 8pm: Inclusiveness- Singled Out   Inclusiveness is a practice that creates an environment where everyone feel comfortable, respected, and valued. Inclusiveness leads to new members.
  • Feb. 22nd; 8pm: Club Experience For Youth   Learn what you can do today with our Kiwanis youth so they will want to join Kiwanis after they graduate. Also gain tips to encourage younger members to take a more active role in your club.

Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community at a time.

Yes...YOU can make a difference!

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!
