How to Join
The East Maitland club is open to community minded men and women of all ages who have a passion for helping children in need. As an individual you may give time to one or two organisations, as a Kiwanis member you can join a group of people and have a more effective outcome for a large number of community groups.
You can join by:
- being invited to a meeting or project by an existing member
- make an enquiry to an existing member
- make an enquiry through our contact page
- write to the club secretary at info@kiwaniseastmaitland.org.au
- turn up to a regular meeting and introduce yourself as an interested person (first and third Monday of each month). We meet at the Hunter River Hotel, in the upstairs function room - see the calendar for more information about upcoming meetings.
How Much Does It Cost to Join?
- Members pay $75 annually which becomes due on 1st October each year
- A fee of $5 per meeting to cover admin costs
- There is provision for special membership should you be of limited means.
Each member’s fees are subsidized in some way to ensure that the cost is not an impairment to joining. These subsidies are raised in the following ways: Member fun events such as Crazy Whist nights, Christmas Auction, Australia Day Food Festival and Melbourne Cup Calcutta.
