Getting involved with Kiwanis is simple—and you can jump in at your own pace.
1. Come As You Are
You don’t need special experience, a lot of free time, or a long-term commitment to get started. Whether you’re curious, community-minded, or ready to roll up your sleeves, you’re welcome here.
2. Join a Committee (or Try One Out)
Committees are the heartbeat of Kiwanis. You can join one that matches your interests—fundraising, youth programs, communications, social events, or community service—or sit in on a meeting to see what it’s like. Many members serve on more than one, but that’s always optional.
3. Get Hands-On
Prefer action over meetings? Many members jump in by volunteering at events, service projects, or fundraisers throughout the year. From pancake breakfasts to youth programs, there are plenty of ways to make an impact without a weekly commitment.
4. Build Connections
Kiwanis isn’t just about service—it’s about people. Through meetings, committees, and social events, you’ll build friendships with others who care about giving back and strengthening our community.
5. Make It Your Own
Your involvement can grow or change with your life. Some members help seasonally, some lead committees, and others support behind the scenes. There’s no “right way” to be a Kiwanian—just show up in a way that works for you.
