Kiwanians are for kids, and that's no kidding

Kids need Kiwanis!
For more than a century, Kiwanis has created opportunities for children to be curious, safe, and healthy — regardless of the community in which they live.
The defining motto of Kiwanis International is “Serving the children of the world.”
In 1921, the Kiwanis Club of Abilene was organized to serve the children of the Abilene community. Some of the first service projects were starting a milk and ice fund for children, placing “Drive Carefully” signs at school entrances at a time when automobiles were just coming into being and delivering used clothing to indigent families at Christmas.
