The Kiwanis International Foundation was established as a legal entity in
1939. When Kiwanis International celebrated its 25th anniversary one year
later, Kiwanian Walter Zeller donated 25 silver dollars in hopes that these
would be auctioned to provide a “nest egg” for the Foundation.
Thankfully, the nest egg netted US$625 and the Foundation’s worldwide
service began.
From
those humble beginnings, the Kiwanis International Foundation has grown
to a multimillion-dollar foundation providing grants to thousands of organizations
worldwide aimed at making better the lives of children. Thus, our mission – “to
assist Kiwanis International in serving the children of the world” – is
our priority.
The Kiwanis International Foundation is on the threshold of one of the most
exciting periods in our history. Powerful forces are reshaping the landscape
of children’s issues, and we are responding by remaining focused on
our mission, strengthening our programs, and securing the resources needed
to meet these challenges and excel.
