Serving the Children of the World
Why do we need to build new clubs?
We Build New Clubs…
• To fill needs in a community.• To provide community members
opportunities for fellowship and service.
• The number one reason we build new clubs is……
To serve more children in more places.
A look back2000-01 administrative year, 292 new clubs were organized
Of those 292 clubs:* Only 110 of the 292 clubs, or 38%, are still
active.* 76 of the 110 clubs, or 69%, are under
charter strength.* Of those 76 clubs, 40 clubs (53%) have
between seven and 15 members.* Only 17 of those 76 clubs, or 22%, have 30 or
more members.
Why do new clubs fail?New clubs fail because the club:
1. Is built too small.2. Lacks an initial service project.3. Lacks money/funds.4. Fails to train all officers, board
members and club members.5. Receives poor mentoring of the club
by sponsoring club.
