"We Build", the Kiwanis motto, defines the primary
aim of the Kiwanis Club of Hazard. While doing so, the members do their best to live up to the meaning of the word, Kiwanis,
which is, as legend has it, We make noise. We have fun.
Kiwanis club of Hazard Kentucky:
-
Assist children, young adults, the aging, and the needy
-
Improve communities
-
Encourage international understanding
Kiwanis clubs also sponsor Kiwanis-family organizations for young people and adults: K-Kids clubs in elementary schools, Builders Clubs in middle school and junior highs, Key Clubs in high schools, Circle K clubs at the collegiate level, and Aktion clubs for adults living with disabilities. These clubs teach future world leaders the importance of helping others.
Thousands of Kiwanis clubs support Young Children: Priority One —a continuing service program focusing on the
needs of children, prenatal through age five, with projects in pediatric trauma, safety, child care, and early development.
Worldwide Service Project —a Kiwanis-family initiative in partnership with UNICEF—aims to virtually eliminate the world’s
leading cause of preventable mental retardation, iodine deficiency disorders.
