Kiwanis community charities are local service projects and fundraising efforts undertaken by Kiwanis clubs to serve the needs of children in their respective communities.
Two years ago, Jimmy Wayne Ballinger and Jessica Cardwell hosted a live outdoor concert in downtown Fort Payne at their newly opened restaurant and bar, N.Y.M.D. (Not Your Mama’s Deli),
On April 13, Fort Payne Rotarian Bill Mitchell, Boy Scouts of America Sequoyah district commissioner, hosted fellow Rotarian Tyler Powell, executive for Sequoyah and Etowah Districts, who provided an update on current activities and future of The Greater Alabama Council, which serves 22 counties in North and Central Alabama. Powell explained how Boy Scouts of America gives thousands of young people in our area the ability to grow into young adults who make a positive impact in our communities. Scouts learn how to lead, the importance of service to others, and how to respond in a crisis.
The Boy Scoutsâ vision is to prepare every eligible youth in America to become a responsible, participating citizen and leader who is guided by the Scout Oath and Law. We achieve this through thousands of dedicated, talented volunteers and a small number of professional staff.
