Kiwanis Club of Livingston History
Kiwanians are volunteers changing the world through service to children and communities. Kiwanis members help shelter the homeless, feed the hungry, mentor the disadvantaged, and care for the sick. They develop youth as leaders, build playgrounds, raise funds for pediatric research, and much more.
No problem is too big or too small. Why? Because working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone. When you give a child a chance to learn, experience, dream, and succeed, great things happen!
The Kiwanis Club of Livingston was chartered on March 12, 1930, and now meets every Wednesday at 6:45 pm at The Hanover Manor, 16 Eagle Rock Avenue, East Hanover, NJ 07936. Please join us at one of our Livingston Kiwanis weekly meetings to learn more and help make a difference in the community.
