Kiwanis International was founded in 1915. It is an international, coeducational service club whose name was taken from the Otchipew American Indian. “Nunc Kee-wanis” translates into “We trade,” “We share our talents,” “We make noise,” and “We meet”. The organization’s founders translated the word as “We build,” which served as the original motto for the Kiwanis. The current motto is “Serving the Children of the World.”
Kiwanis International has over 240,000 members in 7,700 clubs in 80 countries. The average age of members is 57. Members are predominantly male but 26% of the club’s population are female. Each club has a president and board of directors making local Kiwanis strong and omnipresent in their community.
We recently had the pleasure of working with a club that was going to be holding their annual conference in Barbados. They wanted a pin that captured the feeling that one has when they set foot on a beautiful tropical island like Barbados. Using their design ideas, we were able to create a pin that exceeded their expectations.
Our art department was able to achieve this feel by including the ocean, a surfer, some palm trees and of course a set of steel drums. Other important parts of this pin are the Kiwanis logo up top and the date and location of the convention across the bottom. Details like these make it easy to spot a Kiwanis pin in a crowd.
The image you see here in this blog has an irregular, one of a kind shape. We do not have to stick with all round or square pins, we are free to make the pin any shape our customers would like. This gives you creative license over your design. Your custom lapel pins can be as unique as the club you represent.
Lapel pins are the perfect welcoming gift for convention goers to receive. They are light weight and travel very well. Your attendees will look forward to receiving their lapel pin because it will act as a visual reminder of that particular convention. Each year, they can add a new memento to their collection.
