Canada
The
Dawson Creek, Ontario, Kiwanis club’s Annual
Trade Show attracts more than 100 exhibitors and numerous
visitors.
Czech Republic
In
the Czech Republic, children learn to help children. Through a “Children
for Children” project, students deliver gifts to orphaned,
disabled, and needy children. The Kiwanis clubs of Luna Louny and Most-Litvinov
support the project with funds raised selling gingerbread, candles, and
other holiday items at Christmas markets.
Malaysia
Francissa
Peter (center in dark shirt) is a busy woman. Fran—as she
is known—has recorded more than 20 number-one hits on Malaysia’s music
charts. She has visited the United States, where she worked with jazz
fusion pianist Brian Simpson, gospel singer Michael Winans, and jazz saxophonist
Cal Bennett with whom she recorded Liberian Girl for his album Stolen
Moments.
Yet, she still has time for Kiwanis, attending the Kiwanis Club of Klang’s
“Food for Thought” charity tea and singing four songs, which one newspaper
described as a “stunning performance.”
Hawaii
Every
year, clubs in the California-Nevada-Hawaii District participate in a
day of service known as “Total K Day.” This past March, members of the
Pearl Harbor and Hawaii Loa, Honolulu clubs spent the special “K” day
totally renovating the Leeward
Salvation Army.
