Kiwanis
Founded in 1915 and headquartered in Indianap-
olis, Indiana, USA, Kiwanis International is a
thriving organization of service and community
minded men and women who support children
and young adults worldwide. More than 8,000
Kiwanis clubs in more than 70 countries make
their mark by responding to the needs of their
communities and pooling their resources to ad-
dress worldwide issues. Through these efforts,
Kiwanis International is truly “Serving the Chil-
dren of the World.”
Dobytown Kiwanis Service Club was founded
in Kearney in September 1978. Our member-
ship is currently at 62. We meet every Tuesday
morning from 6:45 -7:30 at Perkins Restau-
rant. Each meeting consists of announce-
ments and a program. The last Tuesday
meeting of each month is dedicated to con-
ducting the business of the club. Our major
purpose is best said by our motto – Young
Children Priority One. Most of our projects
revolve around helping children and young
