Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Talking about teddy bears
Q: Where do the bears come from and how do you ensure safety and branding?
Bears are sourced through Bötti Suisse from a partner in China, with European certification and anti-child labor measures, and each bear bears the Kiwanis logo and district branding to ensure identity and trust.
Talking about teddy bears
Q: Tell us what the teddy bear project is and its impact on children.
The project distributes teddy bears to hospitals, ambulances, police, and doctors to give children a smile during distress, with thousands of bears funded by district fundraising and coordinated through Kiwanis clubs across the district.
There's no secret
Q: What steps can other clubs take to replicate your success?
Find a host restaurant or venue for service events, coordinate logistics like seating and meals, involve Kiwanis clubs and Ki Club members, and use simple, repeatable steps such as inviting guests, following up with them, and providing clear next actions (like a membership form) at the meeting.
There's no secret
Q: What's the secret to growing membership in your Kiwanis club?
There isn't a secret beyond inviting people to a meeting, following up, and making sure the meeting is meaningful and welcoming, which naturally leads to new members joining.
Finding partners
Q: Would you know if a school doesn't have vision screening equipment in there?
Yes, the club can assess needs and, when lacking equipment, work with partners to acquire machines or newer technology to support vision screenings in schools.
