Welcome to Kiwanis
       
  
 
Who We Are
 
Kiwanians are men and women banded together to make their communities better places in which to live.
Kiwanians perform community service beyond the capability of government. They work collectively or through committees. They attend regularly scheduled meetings for fellowship and inspiration. They serve because they want to serve. Kiwanis makes it possible.
Kiwanians work with young people and senior citizens; they solve community and social problems; they provide support for spiritual and patriotic endeavors.
Kiwanis’ purpose is “service to Youth, Community and Nation.” The clubs are called “Service Clubs” - a phenomenon of the 21st century.
Kiwanis ranks are open to all men and women of good character; the cost is nominal; the reward in personal satisfaction is great.
Kiwanis clubs are located around the world.  
 
What We Believe
Objectives of Kiwanis International 
The six permanent Objectives 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 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, render altruistic service, and to build better communities.
  • To cooperate in creating and maintaining sound public opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of righteousness, justice,  patriotism, and goodwill.
Meetings
The Kiwanis Club of Salisbury meets weekly on Fridays at noon for one hour at the Country Club of Salisbury for lunch, fellowship, and a short, informative program.
