SERVICE INITIATIVE
DISABILITY AWARENESS PROGRAM - NEW INITIATIVE
​
Working together to make the world a better place. This is what Aktion Club members are striving to do one project at a time. Aktion Club members have united together in an effort to support an international Service Initiative.
​
​

The focus of the Aktion Club Service Initiative is disability awareness.
Kiwanis International and the Joseph Maley Foundation (JMF) co-created this program for Aktion Club. JMF has been conducting disability awareness for more than 18 years and are considered to be experts in this field.
By working together, a new program created specifically for Aktion Club was developed.
The premise of the program is:
-
We are all unique. We have different talents and struggles, hopes and dreams.
-
We all want to be accepted, to enjoy friendships, to work and to play.
-
Every person deserves respect and to be treated with kindness.
-
It is important to celebrate similarities and differences.
-
We must get to know someone to really understand them.


This program fulfills the missions of both Kiwanis International and Aktion Club.
-
Kiwanis mission: Serving the children of the world.
-
Aktion Club mission: Developing initiatives, leadership skills and serving the community.
