Children are Priority One for Kiwanis members.

              Kiwanis meets each Thursday for a buffet lunch at The Chariot, providing a chance for fellowship with friends as well as the opportunity to meet and speak with other local business and professional leaders. Every week there is a program of current interest about issues that affect our community. Meetings end promptly at 1:15 p.m. Outside the weekly meetings the Officers and Board of Directors manage the business of the club. We sponsor year-round service projects that target a wide range of talents and interests, giving all of our members the opportunity to become involved in the improvement of our community. Hendersonville Kiwanis raises more than $35,000 each year, which is used to support these various service projects and the organizations which are listed below.
