The George F. Hixson Fellowship was created in 1983 by the Kiwanis International Foundation Board of Trustees. It is named in honor of the first Kiwanis International President, who served from 1916 to 1918.
Contributions to the Foundation have been used in the last 7 years to fund a Kiwanis Program to eliminate Iodine Deficiency in the World. Kiwanis has raised over $75,000,000. A special ceremony honoring Kiwanis and all those that participated in this program will be held at the United Nations this September.
One may become a member of the Fellowship or increase his/her giving to the
program either by making a single $1,000 (US) contribution or becoming a
Sustaining Member through a minimum initial contribution of $200 (US) and a
pledge to contribute the balance over four years.
First time George F. Hixson Fellowship members receive two
numbered medallions bearing the likeness of Hixson. Both hang from a blue-and
white-ribbon. One is encased in a walnut and velvet shadow box for display, and
the other is worn at high visibility Kiwanis functions. Also awarded is either a
tie tack or clasp to Hixson Fellows and a lapel pin or charm for Hixson Ladies.
Diamond Level status is attained by members who choose to
make additional $1,000 contributions. Diamond recipients receive a diamond tie
tack, lapel pin or charm, and a tab that indicates what level of giving they
have achieved. The tab attaches to the tie tack. A new tab is given for each
additional $1,000 contribution.
Each year at the Kiwanis International convention, a
Foundation reception is scheduled to honor those individuals in the Fellowship,
as well as other contributors to major Foundation programs such as the Founders
Circle, Tablet of Honor, Century Heritage Society, and the World Service Medal
Endowment. Distributed at that event is an Honors Booklet that features
biographical sketches of all new Foundation contributors to the Tablet of Honor
and George F. Hixson Fellowship programs.
