Welcome to Kiwanis Club of Wellington! We have been serving the community since 1924, supporting the three Kiwanis causes for our children: Health and Nutrition, Education and Literacy, and Youth Leadership Development.

When you join Kiwanis, you’ll find our club is a mix of ages, genders, occupations, backgrounds, and interests. We are all passionate about making our community and the world a better place for children so they can thrive. We are devoted to serving the children in our local community and also children all across the country and worldwide through unique and innovative service projects and fundraising initiatives. We sponsor three service leadership programs in the Wellington Schools – the WHS Key Club, the McCormick Middle School Builders Club and the Westwood Elementary School K-Kids.

The Kiwanis Club of Wellington meets twice per month:

  • Business Meeting is at 12 noon on the first Thursday of each month at the Southern Lorain County Ambulance District (SLCAD) building at 179 E Herrick Avenue. Some members meet in person while others join the meeting from their home or office via Zoom. Meetings are promptly adjourned at 1:00 pm. 
  • An informative Program Meeting is held monthly on the third Thursday of each month at the Community Room at the Kelly Street Fire Station. Refreshments and networking begin at 5:30 pm, and the program begins at 6:00 to be completed by 7:00 pm. On September 18, we will hear from Roger Dorsey or a representative of Good Knights of Lorain County, speaking about the need for beds for children in the county and especially in the Wellington area. This is in preparation for the Adventure Raffle fundraiser on October 4 (click link above for more information) and a Bed Build in front of Town Hall on October 25 in which we hope to build at least 30 beds for children in our area.

Yes, we have meetings, but our primary role in the community is service – through various hands-on service projects, fundraisers, and supportive donations to youth-oriented causes. We would love to have you join us!
