Kiwanis empowers communities to improve the world by making lasting differences in the lives of children. Kiwanis strives to be a positive influence in communities worldwide — so that one day, all children will wake up in communities that believe in them, nurture them and provide the support they need to thrive.
Kiwanis Service
Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis club, no matter where in the world it is located. Members stage approximately 152,000 service projects and raise nearly US$133 million every year for communities, families and projects. By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone.
Kiwanis clubs focus on improving the world by serving children, one child and one community at a time. To reach more people and have a greater service impact on their communities, many clubs sponsor Kiwanis Service Leadership Programs. Our Club sponsors:
K-Kids for 4th grade students
Builders Club for 7th & 8th grade students
Key Club for High School students
Aktion Club for adults with disabilities
For more than a century, Kiwanis has created opportunities for children to be curious, safe and healthy regardless of the community in which they live. When you give a child the chance to learn, experience, dream, grow, succeed and thrive, great things can happen.
