Kiwanis International Calls for Proposals
Worldwide Service Project
Call for proposals
Kiwanis International is inviting organizations, institutions and individuals to help identify its next Worldwide Service Project—a directed program that engages Kiwanis members and others to make a positive difference by helping children in need around the world. One need not be a member of the Kiwanis family to propose an idea.
Proposals are due by October 1, 2009, and must:
- Involve a child-focused issue or problem
- Be compelling and relevant
- Involve a global and a local level of participation and impact
- Include hands-on service and fundraising
- Address a virtually solvable problem or issue
- Support Kiwanis membership growth
- Lead to life-changing experiences
- Be aligned with Kiwanis’ brand promise: Leadership and character education that lead to life-changing service
All proposals must be submitted in electronic format.
Please direct general questions to the Worldwide Service Project Coordinator, Elizabeth Warren, at 317-217-6211.
Media queries and/or appointments with contacts should be coordinated through our public relations staff at 317-217-6171, or e-mail. Please complete the request for proposal online.
Kiwanis will accept proposals until October 1, 2009, and will announce its second
Worldwide Service Project in June 2010 at the 95th annual Kiwanis International
convention in Las Vegas.
