INTERNATIONAL DISTINGUISHED GOVERNOR
and
DISTINGUISHED LT. GOVERNOR AWARDS
Many of these lists are in the process of being updated.
Please check back in the weeks to come . Thank you.
 
 
Established by Kiwanis International during the 1972-73 Kiwanis year, the Distinguished Award program is designed to recognize those Kiwanians who achieve levels of excellence in leadership, membership growth and service to their Club, Division and District.
 
District level recipients of "Distinghished" status (namely Lt. Governors and Governors) are listed here. Clubs should refer to club histories for listings of Distinguished Club Presidents and Distinguished Club Secretaries (The Distinguished Club Secretary Award was added in 1985-86).
 
Recipients receive a silver "Distinguished" Kiwanis lapel pin for the office served.
