The Kiwanis Family


Kiwanis
Kiwanis clubs, located in 80 nations, help their communities in countless ways. Each community’s needs are different—so each Kiwanis club is different. By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone. When you give a child the chance to learn, experience, dream, grow, succeed and thrive, great things happen.

The Eliminate Project: The Eliminate Project is an international service effort of Kiwanis in conjunction with UNICEF to help eliminate Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus from the world by 2015. To learn more about the Eliminate Project Please visit the international website here.
