The Kiwanis Mission and Vision

For more than a century, Kiwanis International has empowered its members to improve the world by making lasting differences in the lives of children.

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.

Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis club, no matter where in the world it’s located. Globally members stage approximately 150,000 service projects and raise nearly $100 million every year for communities, families and projects. By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone.
