Welcome!
What is Kiwanis? This is a frequently asked question.
The official answer is: "Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time."
Simply put, we are your friends and, with jobs and professions like your own, yes, even retirees, who have volunteered to help the children and those in need.
All of the money raised by our charitable projects go directly to the charities we serve; e.g.: Wigs 4 Kids, Fishing Derby for Handicapped Kids, Hunter Safety, Salvation Army, to mention a few.
No member of Shorewood Kiwanis receives a salary. All administrative costs are borne by means of the club's internal funding, like 50/50 raffles, Happy Dollars; fines and Birthday and Anniversary donations.
We shop with local merchants and encourage others to do the same.
When you think of "Kiwanis", think of people helping kids and those in need.
