Clubs in the Kiwanis family

K-Kids

K-Kids is where students 6-11 years old in primary/elementary school begin developing their hearts for service. In this student-led service leadership program, members gain confidence, learn skills and character, and begin their journey of service.

Key Club

Key Club International is the organization for students typically in secondary school sponsored by Kiwanis International. Using leadership skills is at the heart of the Key Club experience. Members run for elected officer positions, facilitate meetings, do public speaking, engage with the broader community, and plan and implement service projects.

Circle K International

CKI empowers college students through service to local, national and global communities. Alongside like-minded peers, officers and members make lifelong friendships and continue to use their leadership skills and passion to make a difference.

Aktion Club

Aktion Club is the only international service club for adults with disabilities. Members develop confidence and self-esteem by holding leadership roles and engaging in meaningful service together. Through club activities, members exhibit care and connect with their community.

Kiwanis clubs

Since 1915, Kiwanis’ adult volunteers have been improving the lives of children around the world through fundraising and hands-on service projects. Kiwanis clubs sponsor Service Leadership Clubs (including K-Kids) to help people of all ages and abilities discover their passion to serve and their desire to lead.
