Kiwanis is a global organization of member-volunteers who are dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community at a time. Our district is one of nearly 50 across the globe and consists of over 250 local Kiwanis Clubs with a combined membership of over 6,800 individuals dedicated to improving their communities and the world. Kiwanis members dedicate more than 18 million volunteer hours and invest more than US$107 million annually in projects that strengthen communities and serve children. We help shelter the homeless, feed the hungry, mentor the disadvantaged and care for the sick. We develop youth as leaders, build playgrounds, raise funds for pediatric research and much more. We believe that helping a child helps the world. Working together, Kiwanis members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone. When you give a child a chance to learn, experience, dream and succeed, great things happen!
