The Civitan International organization of 1992 has come a long way since its beginnings in an earlier era. The organization first appeared in 1917 in the middle of World War I as a Birmingham, Alabama service club where members united to deal with local and world concerns. It continues as an international organization with community as well as worldwide projects. Today a simple, inexpensive program like Civitan's candy boxes, with a presence in thousands of motels and restaurant chains and managed entirely by Civitan volunteers, raises an astounding amount of capital. These monies support the organization's Civitan International Research Center, located on the campus of the University of Alabama at Birmingham. From small, individual, volunteer efforts, major projects have evolved and thousands of people's needs have been served. Moreover, Civitan's story is the distilled story of America's middle class in the twentieth century - its cares and concerns, its politics and purposes. Indeed, Civitan's history reflects and encompasses the social, economic, moral, and cultural issues of this century, and it is an interesting and important story because of that.
