Gov. Lucien Giancursio

Welcome everyone to our 2023-24 Kiwanis year.

As we begin this new year, let us take a pause to reflect on last year and what we achieved:

• The new clubs that were opened will now serve their communities.
• The various fund raisers we conducted to help those in need.
• The many hours of service that we provided.
• The friendships that were created and fostered.

The 2023-24 Kiwanis year provides us the continued opportunity to archive many things in our great New York District of Kiwanis.

To the incoming class of Lt. Governors and the various District chairs, as well as the district management team and personnel:

• May this be one of your best years in Kiwanis.
• Together as a strong District, we will promote and strengthen existing programs, create new programs, and continue to inspire our members to greater volunteer achievements.
• Our forward thinking will impact the district for years to come.

This year's logo "Excelsiors XXIII-XXIV" - Simply translated means "Higher and Always Upward".

In this Excelsiors XXIII-XXIV year, we have ambitious goals and new endeavors to achieve.

Together as a District and Kiwanis Family, we will continue to change the lives of the children and communities that we gather to serve.

For the need for Kiwanis is greater than ever before.

As we explore educational and personal growth this year, this year will define who we are and who we want to be, as the New York District of Kiwanis.

Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated
to improving the world one child and one community at a time.
