The Kiwanis Club of Carrollton met on Friday, April 12, 2024, at the University of West Georgia, in the Hubbard Dining Room. Our club had the pleasure to learn about the ongoing life achievements of Margaret Miller and her continuing journey of excellence. Margaret shared highlights of her life as a young child in Carrollton - blessed with an active, loving family - to her ultimate rise to Lt. Colonel after 36 years and holding 11 ranks. Margaret's positive energy, honoring faith, and stellar achievements invigorated the room. As a fellow Kiwanian, we are fortunate to have her as our own.

Our club had the pleasure to listen and learn about pivotal updates from Kathy Parsons, Director of Missions for Impact West Georgia, and as our own Kiwanian member.

She shared photos of impact showcasing the hard work and now culmination of the new, beautiful shelter for those in need. The shelter is one of several transformational programs designed to empower vulnerable individuals in the challenges of homelessness, illiteracy, and access to healthcare - all of which uplift our community and bless others.

Okefenokee Swamp
Posted by lacey robinson
You all are probably aware of the pending danger to the Okefenokee swamp posed by a mining operation out of Alabama that is mining titanium oxide at a site very near the swamp. If the mining operation is allowed to expand it could cause irreparable damage to the swamp and it’s ecosystem.
There are many groups in the state of Georgia and even outside our borders that are trying to stop this ecological catastrophe. The Georgia River Network is one of those groups. They have put together a website that explains the importance of protecting the swamp and what we can do as individuals to express our concerns. 
Would it be possible to send this link out to club members thru Clubrunner? I know we have several members who have interest in pursuing this effort. 
Thanks,
Lacey

Dr. Kevin Rivers
Posted on Mar 29, 2024
The Good Friday Breakfast Message was brought by Dr. Kevin Rivers, Lead Pastor of Midway Church.  Read the Gospel of John, emphasis on John 19:30.  In the last four actions on the cross:  He received sour wine; He said "it is finished";  He bowed his head; and He gave up His spirit.  The last actions demonstrated purpose, peace, and power.

President's Message

Greetings, and welcome to our Carrollton Kiwanis Club! We have been serving the Carrollton and West Georgia region through service to children of the community since 1947. We were chartered with sponsorship from the Newnan Kiwanis Club, and have donated thousands of dollars and volunteer hours to our community over the decades. We host sponsored projects in an effort to return our proceeds back to efforts that help children live, develop, and grow in a safe and nurturing community. Please join us at one of our weekly Friday lunch meetings to hear about new and noteworthy things affecting our community, and how you can join us in helping the youth of our community.

Thanks, 

Paul McDaniel
