Kiwanis Objects
The six permanent Objects of Kiwanis International were
approved by Kiwanis club delegates at the 1924 International Convention in
Denver, Colorado. Through the decades, they have remained unchanged
-
To give primacy to the human and spiritual rather than to the
material values in life.
-
To encourage the daily living of the Golden Rule in all human
relationships.
-
To promote the adoption and the application of higher social,
business and professional standards
-
To develop by precept and example, a more intelligent,
aggressive and serviceable citizenship.
-
To provide through Kiwanis Clubs a practical means to form
enduring friendships, to render altruistic service and to build
better communities.
-
To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound public
opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of
righteousness, justice, patriotism and goodwill.
What a New
Member Can Expect From the Tillicum Kiwanis:
An opportunity for you to share
your experience, your knowledge, your time and your love in
service to your community and your fellow man. A chance to
belong to a group of similarly dedicated persons, and to
share with them the fun and fellowship of meeting once a
week and hearing interesting, stimulating programs and to
work together for the good of the community.
What We Expect of a New Member:
-
To attend regularly, and participate in our
club meetings.
-
To commit some time to our community service
and fundraising projects, two or three times
a year.
-
To sponsor one new member each year.
-
To accept the responsibility of leadership
in any office or assignment to which you are
elected or appointed.
What Is The Membership Like?
We are a group of men and women
of diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. What we share in
common perhaps can best be summarized in the Kiwanis motto:
Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to
changing the world one child and one community at a time. It
is something you do.
