History
The Denton Breakfast Kiwanis (DBK) Club spun off from the Denton Noon Club in 1960 to provide a more convenient meeting time for our early rising members. The Club consistently holds its membership at between 40 and 50 members--permitting us to be more both more personal and flexible than some larger clubs, yet still capable of significant service initiatives.
DBK is part of Kiwanis International, which was founded in 1915 in Detroit, Michigan. With headquarters now in Indianapolis, Kiwanis International has more than 300,000 members in 8,600 clubs in 92 countries. We make our mark by responding to the needs of our communities and pooling our resources to address worldwide issues, such as Iodine Deficiency Disorder (IDD). You are never far from a fellow Kiwanian—and you are always welcome to attend any Kiwanis Club meeting on the planet (See: Kiwanis International)
