In the early years, Kiwanis clubs focused on business networking,but even then, Members were serving the needs of the poor. By 1919, the organization had changed its focus from business to service. Kiwanis became an international organization in 1916 with the organization of the Kiwanis Club of Hamilton, Ontario. Kiwanis limited its membership to the United States and Canada until 1962 when worldwide expansion was approved. Until 1987, Kiwanis was a male-only organization. But after years of debate and growing support, women’s membership was received overwhelmingly. A Happy New Year! Grant that IMay bring no tear to any eye.When this New Year in time shall endLet it be said I've played the friend,Have lived and loved and labored here,And made of it a happy year. --Edgar A.
