Welcome to the Carolinas District of Kiwanis International! We are an eclectic mix of ages, genders, occupations, backgrounds and interests. We are all passionate about making our community and the world a better place for children so they can thrive. We are devoted to serving the children in our local communities and also children all across the country and worldwide through unique and innovative service projects and fundraising initiatives.
As your Governor this year, I’ve chosen the theme “10-4 Good Buddy”—a phrase where “10-4” means “understood” and “everything is okay.” It represents our commitment to truly hearing our communities’ needs and our confidence that together, we can make everything okay. Just as truckers rely on each other across the highways, we rely on each other across our communities to get the job done.
There’s an ancient Hebrew concept that has guided communities for centuries: tikkun olam, literally meaning “repairing the world.” This profound idea teaches us that each of us has a responsibility—not just to ourselves or our immediate families, but to the entire world around us. We are called to actively participate in healing what is broken, lifting up what has fallen, and creating justice where there is inequality. But here’s the crucial question: How do we transform this beautiful ideal into tangible action?
📻 Monday Membership Minute — and this one starts with a proud dad moment. 🦅
Last Thursday, my daughters Caroline and Lillian both earned the rank of Eagle Scout. Years of commitment, leadership, and service — and I couldn't be more proud. 💙
But here's something that struck me: they didn't get there alone. Behind them was a whole community of adults who showed up — Scoutmasters, mentors, family — people who invested in two young women and refused to let them settle for less than their best.
That's exactly what Kiwanis is built to do.
At the heart of everything we do — every project, every meeting, every membership conversation — is this: putting caring adults in the lives of young people who need them. That's the mission. That's always been the mission.
This week's challenge: think about the young people in your community working toward something big. Is your Kiwanis club showing up for them?
The best recruitment pitch we have is simple — come be the adult that makes a difference. There's no shortage of young people who need exactly that. 🌱
