Kiwanis helps kids around the world. Our Kiwanis club looks out for our community and the Kiwanis International organization takes on large-scale challenges, such as fighting disease and poverty. Our Kiwanis club is generous with its time. We are creative with our ideas. We are passionate about making a difference. And we have fun along the way!
For more than a century, Kiwanis has created opportunities for children to be curious, safe and healthy regardless of the community in which they live. When you give a child the chance to learn, experience, dream, grow, succeed and thrive, great things can happen.

The Kiwanis Mission & Vision
Kiwanis empowers communities to improve the world by making lasting differences in the lives of children. Kiwanis strives to be a positive influence in communities worldwide — so that one day, all children will wake up in communities that believe in them, nurture them and provide the support they need to thrive.
Kiwanis Service
Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis club, no matter where in the world it’s located. Members stage approximately 150,000 service projects and raise nearly US$100 million every year for communities, families and projects. By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone.
Our Kiwanis club focuses on changing the world by serving children, one child in our community at a time. To reach more people and have a greater service impact on their communities, many clubs sponsor a Kiwanis family club — K-Kids for primary school children; Builders Clubs for adolescents; Key Clubs for teens; Circle K clubs for university students and Aktion Clubs for adults living with disabilities.

The eight Lorain County Kiwanis clubs of Ohio hosted new Ohio Kiwanis Governor Jason Miller of Bowling Green at Lorain County Community College Tuesday night. Governor Jason helped install new Kiwanis officers, including Wellington's officers. From left to right are Treasurer Amy Szmania, Immediate Past President Jenny Arntz, President Carol Burke and Secretary Pam Mazzone. This is believed to be the first all-women officer slate in the 99-year history of the Wellington Kiwanis Club. (Missing from the photo is President- elect Tess Reiland) In addition, new member Ashley Deaton was installed as the club's newest member by the Governor, who officially assumed his duties October 1. Also, the Kiwanis clubs collected a bedding drive for the Good Knights program. Service is our game because Kids Need Kiwanis. ... See MoreSee Less
