The Kiwanis Family consists of men, women, and children serving in Kiwanis, Circle K, Key, Builders, K Kids, and Aktion clubs. What do we have in common? We are all dedicated to serving our communities and the world.
New membership opportunities means more ways and people to help server our communities by developing new clubs and adding new members.
In 2007, the House of Delegates in San Antonio approved a membership flexibility amendment which specifically says:
“Notwithstanding any other provision of the Kiwanis International Bylaws, the Standard Form for Club Bylaws, or the Standard Form for District Bylaws, the International Board of Trustees may admit into Kiwanis membership and/or permit the creation of new forms of Kiwanis membership consistent with the Objects of Kiwanis International, which may extend for a period not exceeding five (5) years without approval of the House of Delegates. The Chief Executive Officer of Kiwanis International shall make an annual report to the House of Delegates covering any such Board actions taken or authorized and make an evaluation of their current effectiveness.”
These new opportunities build on our foundation of success, embrace the best practices of the past, abandon things that are not helping us grow, refresh things that need updating, and invite others to join us.
It has been two years since the amendment passed and the time to act is now! Please click on the PowerPoint presentation and spend some time looking and thinking of the ways that we can help Kiwanis grow.
