About Kiwanis Service Clubs
What is Kiwanis
Kids need adults who care.
That’s why people join Kiwanis clubs.
They’re local groups of like-minded volunteers who make a difference.
Friends, Neighbors, anyone who loves serving together to change children’s lives.
In fact, Kiwanians are part of a global network of clubs and members who partner with each other and with organizations whose missions align with ours.
All around the world — and in communities like yours — Kiwanis International is serving the kids who need us most.

Kiwanis Name
The name “Kiwanis” means “we trade” or “we share our talents.” It was coined from an American Indian expression, Nunc Kee-wanis.

Kiwanians are volunteers changing the world through service to children and communities.
Kiwanis members help shelter the homeless, feed the hungry, mentor the disadvantaged, and care for the sick.
They develop youth as leaders, build playgrounds, raise funds for pediatric research, and much more.
No problem is too big or too small. Why? Because working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone.
When you give a child a chance to learn, experience, dream, and succeed, great things happen!
As Kiwanis clubs and members, we see it everyday!
