KIDS AT HEART
Kiwanis helps kids around the world. Local clubs look out for our communities and the international organization takes on large-scale challenges, such as fighting disease and poverty. We are generous with our time. We are creative with our ideas. We are passionate about making a difference. And we have fun along the way.
MAKE AN IMPACT!
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.
Ready to help children and families in your community? Ready to change the world? Kiwanis is ready for you! Altogether, more than 1,200 Kiwanis clubs in Europe make Kiwanians a powerful force for serving children and changing lives. Each club is an independent entity, with its own traditions and priorities.
