Who Is Kiwanis For?
Kiwanis is for anyone who cares about children and who wants to assist in improving the lives of others in his/her community. The membership of a Kiwanis club is representative of a broad spectrum of the community it serves and is often made up of business people, stay-at-home parents, community leaders, and retirees alike. Kiwanis membership has something to offer everyone. Likewise, anyone interested in community service has something to offer Kiwanis.
