 Activities

Communication & Information

A major emphasis is put on communication and information towards Kiwanis members and their clubs. To date, the RSC has edited and printed numerous publications, among which

  • Officers Manuals: manuals that need to guide the club officers (president, secretary and treasurer) and the Lt-Governors in their tasks. Other manuals are available for District Secretaries & Governors.
  • New Club Builder/KIAR Manual : guides Kiwanians in building new clubs.
  • Information Brochure & Leaflet : general information about the Kiwanis organization for members and potential members.
  • Leaflets & Threefold : general information about conventions, projects,….
  • Corporate Identity manual for Kiwanis members and clubs : to guide clubs in the uniform use of the Kiwanis images and logo’s for their publications and websites.
  • Kiwanis Sponsored Youth Organisations : information on programs, such as Builders club, Key Club, Circle K, Kiwanis Junior, etc…

All these publications are available in at least seven languages as we are trying to serve a majority of our members in their native language. That is why a large amount of our time is spent on translations.

Membership & new club building

This department is responsible for member services and the expansion of Kiwanis in districts and in non-districted areas (when referring to expansion, it implies internal expansion as well as new club building), including the Sponsor Youth Organisations

In non-districted areas, the membership & NCB department :

  • serves as district office by providing administrative assistance.
  • handles the entire administration related to new club building procedures and charters
  • searches for sponsor clubs to assist newly built clubs.
  • handles the entire Kiwanis registration procedure when entering a new country where Kiwanis clubs are non-existent thus far
  • educates Kiwanians in new countries
  • supervises and trains the Kiwanians (Field Service Representatives – FSR’s) hired to work locally on building new clubs in non-districted countries.
  • ensures regular contacts with officers of clubs in remote area’s to prevent them from getting isolated within our organisation
  • assists countries in their search for new service projects

Within the districts : the membership & NCB department :

  • provides assistance to district officers responsible for new club building & growth
  • assists the district board in the establishment of a strategy plan
  • educates the district officers responsible for expansion & growth
  • handles the entire administration related to new club building procedures and charters

Dues Collection

The RSC is responsible for the yearly dues collection of the European Clubs. Follow-up and assistance is provided by our staff members.

Kiwanis International European Federation

Based on a yearly renewable contract between Kiwanis International and the KI European Federation, the RSC provides a certain number of services. It deals with administration in general, but also with the organisation and registration of the European Convention. The RSC is also responsible for hosting and organizing the meetings of the KI-EF Board.

Kiwanis International Foundation in Europe

The RSC assists the KI-EF and the KI Foundation in promoting the contract that was signed at the European Convention 2000 in Oostende. The contract stipulates that all foundation money collected in Europe will be used to support service projects in Europe. A bank account has been opened in Gent, Belgium.

KEP, or the Kiwanis Education Program

As part of the agreement between KI-EF and KI Foundation, it was decided to start a European service project that mainly concentrates on the education of youngsters living in countries with a poor education system. All the European Kiwanis clubs are asked to be involved in the realization of this project on a long term basis. More detailed information is available on this site, under “Projects”.
 

Conferences

The RSC offers easy accessible facilities for meetings and conferences. In the last six years, it has organized conferences on IDD, Marketing, Female Membership, Kiwanis Junior and New Club Building, but also KIEF Board & Council meetings, District Secretary Trainings, Governors-elect Conferences, Train the Trainers Conferences, etc. The RSC staff is also responsible for organizing accommodation, meals, local transportation and meeting materials. They also serve as interpreter when required.

The RSC auditorium – with seating for up to 50 people – is used for meetings and conferences with high attendance and can be used by clubs and districts upon availability and with the prior consent of the RSC Directors.

The Regional Service Center staff is daily available

from 8:30 to 17:00, Monday to Friday.
