Kiwanis is an
international organization founded in 1915;
Kiwanis consists of global volunteers
dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time. Its
mission is SERVING THE CHILDREN OF THE WORLD.
Late 2012, a group of Filipinos in Dubai spearheaded
by Mr. Pablo Banday have initiated to create another branch of this global
organization Kiwanis International.
This had been supported by the Philippine South
District for it to be listed as part of this growing community.
A group of officers has been in place to lead members
of KID in its primary mission.
During the past 2 and half years, fund-raising
activities have been initiated that helps spread awareness of the existence of

is our little way to give back to the members of the community where we belong
which is of great need of help. When we care, we give hope and when we give
hope, it is easy to love and share what we do have and continue changing the world one child and one community at a time.
