Celebrate Kiwanis One Day
On April 10, be sure to set aside some time for the family: the Kiwanis family, that is.
Saturday, April 10, marks the fourth annual observance of Kiwanis One Day, a day when Kiwanis and its family of clubs—Kiwanis Junior, Circle K, Key Club, Aktion Club, Builders Club, and Kiwanis Kids—join forces with their communities for a day of hands-on service. A lot of good work gets done on this day, work that increases Kiwanis’ presence in the community and builds awareness about the value of service.
More than 600 Kiwanis-family clubs participated in the inaugural Kiwanis One Day, and Kiwanis hopes to double that number this year. Projects undertaken run the gamut from beach cleanups to book drives, playground maintenance to pet days at senior centers, health fairs to high school beautifications.
Attention Kiwanians: Browse resources to help plan your Kiwanis One Day event, and don’t forget to share stories and photos of your One Day experiences online.
Attention: New this year, clubs that participate in Kiwanis One Day should report the events on the online monthly report form. This helps Kiwanis track and measure service projects, participation, and help improve our programs. However, if you are requesting a banner patch, please note that you should complete the online banner patch form. Patches will be sent only once per year, on or around October 1. For clubs that also participate and request banner patches for Read Around the World and Young Children Priority One projects, patches will be sent at that time too. |
