What is Kiwanis?

Kiwanis is a world wide service organization for men and women desiring personal involvement in the leadership and improvement of their communities. As a group, they can achieve what individuals cannot do alone. These men and women belong to Kiwanis clubs located throughout the world. They attend regular meetings for fellowship and inspiration and perform voluntary community service.
