than the material values of life.

all human relationships.
To promote the adoption and the application of
higher social, business, and professional standards.
To develop, by precept and example, a more
intelligent, aggressive, and serviceable citizenship.
To provide, through Kiwanis Clubs, a practical means
to form enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to build better
communities.
To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound
public opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of
righteousness, justice, patriotism, and goodwill.
