WELCOME!
Thank you for stopping by our site. We hope that you will take a look around and familiarize yourself with the great things that Kiwanis is doing in our community and all over the world. But first, let me explain briefly what Kiwanis is all about.
Kiwanis International is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time. Our members, Kiwanians, are service-minded men and women who are united in their commitment and compassion for others. Any community need can become a Kiwanis service project, especially the needs of children. Kiwanis service projects range from efforts that help local communities to Kiwanis International's Worldwide Service Project for the elimination of iodine deficiency disorders.
Kiwanis members dedicate more than 6 million volunteer hours and invest more than US$100 million in service projects that strengthen communities and serve children every year.
At the Farmville Area Kiwanis Club, we want to ensure that all children have the opportunity to lead healthy, successful lives. We believe that by helping one child, you help the world.
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! Learn how you can help your community by joining Kiwanis.
Help us help the children of the Farmville Area.
We meet at Charley's Waterfront Cafe every 1st and 3rd Tuesday at 6:15pm
please come be our guest at an upcoming meeting!
