Kiwanis International: Serving the Children of the World
Kiwanis International is a thriving organization of service-minded men and women who respond to the unique needs of their communities and address worldwide issues by “Serving the Children of the World.” Today, the entire Kiwanis family has more than 600,000 members in more than 13,000 clubs. Kiwanis clubs serve in 94 countries around the world and achieve what individuals cannot do alone. Kiwanis clubs support Young Children: Priority One —a continuing service program focusing on the needs of children. The Worldwide Service Project aims to virtually eliminate maternal and neonatal tetnus.
In Minot, the group has 63 members and works to help support the children of our area through two major fundraisers. Each October, the group serves all you can eat pancakes for a small fee. That effort raises thousands of dollars to benefit Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Companions for Children, Domestic Violence Crisis Center, Junior Achievement and many more organizations. In the winter, the group carols for donations. That money benefits the Salvation Army and Community Action Opportunities. The members aren't just raising money, they also serve the community by ringing bells for the Salvation Army, feeding those helping to rebuild Minot after the 2011 flood and collecting items of food and supplies for those in need. Won't you join us? We meet weekly on Tuesday at the Grand Hotel.
