Ravenwood Golf Club, Victor, N.Y. -- Geneva Kiwanis Club Board Member and Geneva Middle School Builders Club Adviser Berni Kairys was recognized at the Finger Lakes Division of Kiwanis Passing of the Banner Event for her outstanding work with the Geneva Middle School Builders Club. Mrs. Kairys, a teacher at Geneva Middle School, has been a volunteer adviser to the Builders Club for over 10 years.

Builders Club is a “student-led” community service organization that operates under school regulations and draws its members from the student body.

With more than 46,000 adolescent members worldwide, the Builders Club provides students with opportunities to develop leadership, improve self-esteem, increase civic engagement and learn life skills through service. As students maneuver this “in-between stage” of life, Builders Club empowers them to be themselves, work together with friends and implement plans through action. Through Builders Club, students become leaders at school, in their community and in the world.
