Club HistorySince 1915, Kiwanians have served the needs of the downtrodden, the less fortunate, the disadvantaged. Today, Kiwanis International is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time. The Kansas City, Kansas Downtown Kiwanis Club was formed in (1921 or 22). Our club alone has produced five district governors:
In addition to making many significant contributions to our community, we’ve yielded more district governors than any other Kiwanis Club in the state. Our members are service-minded men and women who are unmatched in their commitment and compassion for others. Kiwanis service projects range from efforts that help local communities to Kiwanis International’s Worldwide Service Project to eliminate iodine deficiency disorders. Kiwanis members dedicate more than six million volunteer hours and invest more than $100 million in service projects to strengthen communities and serve young children every year. Children are “Priority One!”
