The Henderson Kiwanis Club, which formed 66 years ago in 1952, is part of a global organization of over 600,000 members in 80 countries.

The motto of Kiwanis International is “Serving the children of the world” and, according to Rubin, the civic organization “empowers members to pursue creative ways to serve the needs of children through local service projects and fundraising.”

The annual golf tournament, one of the local chapter’s larger fundraisers, helps the youth of Vance County, specifically. “Every penny we make goes back to kids in our community,” said Rubin.
