Through service projects, fundraising initiatives, and community partnerships, Kiwanis clubs address the unique needs of their communities, focusing on issues such as childhood hunger, access to education, and healthcare for children. Kiwanis clubs also support youth leadership programs, such as Key Club for high school students, Circle K International for college students, and Builders Clubs for middle school students, empowering young people to become the next generation of leaders.
