"Kiwanis is
a global organization of volunteers
dedicated to changing the world one
child and one community at a
time."
Kiwanis defining statement,
adopted October 2004.
The
six permanent Objects of Kiwanis
International were approved by
Kiwanis club delegates at the 1924
Convention in Denver, Colorado.
Through the succeeding decades, they
have remained unchanged.
To give primacy to the human and
spiritual rather than to the material
values of life.
To encourage the daily living
of the Golden Rule in all human
relationships.
To promote the adoption and
the application of higher social,
business, and professional standards.
To develop, by precept and
example, a more intelligent,
aggressive, and serviceable
citizenship.
To provide, through Kiwanis
clubs, a practical means to form
enduring friendships, to render
altruistic service, and to build
better communities.
To cooperate in creating and
maintaining that sound public opinion
and high idealism which make possible
the increase of righteousness,
justice, patriotism, and goodwill.
