MESSAGE OF ASPAC CHAIR

Maribel “Belle” Garcia

My fellow Kiwanis Leaders,

As the anticipated District Conventions are just around the corner, I am delighted to invite you all to join us in commemorating the remarkable journey we have undertaken together. As we prepare to gather, let us take a moment to reflect on our humble beginnings and the awe-inspiring achievements that now stand testament to our dedication and perseverance.

Let us extend our warmest congratulations to those who have attained the coveted title of Distinguished Districts and those Kiwanis clubs who emerged victorious in our signature projects. With immense pride, we extend our commendation to The Gold Awardees for Best Signature Project: Kiwanis Club of Nilgiri Nepal | Nepal District for Group 1, Kiwanis Club of Daragang Magayon | Philippine Luzon District for Group 2 category, and Kiwanis Club of Shepparton Sunrisers | Australia District for Silver Awards for Group1.

We also take this opportunity to recognize the exceptional leadership and dedication displayed by our Distinguished Governors and District Secretaries during the Administrative Year 2021-2022 from Nepal, New Zealand – South Pacific, Japan, Taiwan, and India. Your guidance and tireless efforts have been instrumental in steering ASPAC toward greater heights.

Additionally, a heartfelt appreciation goes out to all who graced us with their presence at the Kiwanis International Convention in Minneapolis, as your participation and engagement have revitalized our shared commitment that defines our Kiwanis family.

As we gather for the District convention, let us reflect on our achievements, draw inspiration from one another, and ignite the motivation within all of us to continue making a difference. Collectively, we can overcome any obstacle and bring about lasting and meaningful impact. As our commitment to the main goal of growing membership has driven us to go above and beyond.

Once again, congratulations to all of you for your exceptional achievements. May the upcoming conventions in every district be a celebration of not only our successes but also of the enduring bonds that unite us as Kiwanians.

Yours in Kiwanis,

ASPAC Chair Belle Garcia
