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?
Quick question for your club this week: if someone walked up to a random member and asked “what is Kiwanis?” — could they answer it confidently? 🤔
Here’s the thing — you can’t recruit effectively for something you can’t clearly describe. And with May Membership Month right around the corner, now is the time to get aligned on your story. 💪
This week’s challenge: at your next meeting, take just 10 minutes and have every member answer this out loud — “Why am I a Kiwanian, and what do we do?” Listen. Find the common thread. Build something your whole club can own and deliver with confidence. 🤝
When every member tells the same powerful story, recruitment stops feeling like work — and starts feeling like an invitation. ✨
Watch this week’s Monday Membership Minute and let’s get our story straight before May arrives! ⬆️
📻 Monday Membership Minute — and May is the perfect backdrop for this one. 🗓️
Planning ahead - as noted last week, May is Membership Month but it’s also Kiwanis club election season. So, we’re busy, energized, and full of opportunity. 💙
Building a strong leadership pipeline is something healthy clubs think about all year — but right now is a great time to take stock. 💭
Two things clubs should be doing:
👀 Look inward — who in your current membership is ready for a leadership role and just needs someone to ask?
🚪 Look outward — recruitment hits different when you can offer a prospect a real leadership opportunity, not just a membership pin.
Strong clubs don't scramble for officers in May. They build the pipeline all year long. 💪
