Kiwanis Club continues to impact lives positively
Article by March 5, 2021
Despite the drastic changes that the coronavirus pandemic has caused to many livelihoods, it has not dampened the resilience and innovation of members of the Kiwanis Club of Barbados North.
Members of the club are still reaching out and caring for people in their communities in St James, St Peter, St Lucy, St Andrew, St Joseph and St Thomas. The Kiwanis Club North has responded to this situation in meaningful ways by assisting some of those affected and living within its catchment area.
Last October club members participated in a beach clean-up at Lakes Beach, Ermy Bourne Highway, St Andrew, under a project sponsored by CYEN. Twenty bags of non-degradable materials were collected, weighed and recorded by the organization.
