| The public is invited to attend the second meeting of the Puerto Vallarta Kiwanis Club on March 15th. RSVP to Jim Boland at 222-2866 or jimboland(at)aol.com, or Gary Green at (322) 150-7214 or gary(at)greenandassociates.org. | | Kiwanis International is displaying its commitment to children and communities, such as Puerto Vallarta and the surrounding area, with the launch of the Kiwanis Club of Puerto Vallarta.
Our second no-cost informational meeting is slated for Tuesday morning, March 18th, from 9 to 10 am, at the home of Jim Boland at Lazaro Cardenas #461 on the South Side of Puerto Vallarta.
Every day, Kiwanians around the globe make a difference by revitalizing neighborhoods, organizing youth-sports programs, planting trees, erecting playgrounds, and performing countless other projects to help children and communities.
"The 600,000 adult and youth members of Kiwanis in communities like Puerto Vallarta prove that one person's actions of kindness are enough to make a significant impact on entire communities," said Jim Boland, Club Co-Founder.
"With the formation of the club here in Vallarta, we aim to shed light on the amazing efforts made by Kiwanian men and women worldwide who continue to improve the lives of the world's children."
Founded in 1915, Kiwanis has been a pioneer in empowering community leaders dedicated to local and international community issues. Kiwanis members make their mark by responding to the needs of their communities and pooling their resources to address worldwide issues.
Globally, the entire Kiwanis family has focused humanitarian efforts on eliminating iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) through the Worldwide Service Project, a $75 million USD campaign in partnership with UNICEF, which began in 1994. Through these efforts, Kiwanis International truly is "Serving the Children of the World."
A typical Kiwanis club is a snapshot of its community, with members from all walks of life. They are unified in their belief that children and their communities benefit from the efforts of a proficient group of caring and involved volunteers.
The Kiwanis International family also includes several service organizations for young people, including Circle K, Key Club, Builders Club, K-Kids, Kiwanis Junior, and Aktion Club.
The public is invited to attend the Tuesday, March 15th meeting. RSVP to Jim Boland at 222-2866 or jimboland(at)aol.com, or Gary Green at (322) 150-7214 or gary(at)greenandassociates.org. Continental breakfast will be provided. |
