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!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kiwanis Mission & Vision<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Kiwanis Club of Queen Creek is part of Kiwanis International, a worldwide service organization with over 15,000 Clubs in 80 countries. The Kiwanis Motto is “Serving the Children of the World”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our club has a special focus on the children in Queen Creek and the Southeast Valley. Everything we do is for the beneift of the children in Queen Creek and the surrounding areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Kiwanis club fulfills the Kiwanis mission by serving our community through Kiwanis Community Service Projects<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kiwanis Service<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis club, no matter where in the world it\u2019s located. Members stage approximately 150,000 service projects<\/strong> and raise nearly $100 million every year for communities, families and projects<\/strong>. By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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 \u2014 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Queen Creek Club helps purchase back-to-school clothes, backpacks, and supplies for area children, helps provide supplies for teachers and donates learning tools to third-graders in 23 local schools. We honor Junior and Senior High students with Student of the Month Awards, and provide $15,000.00 in annual Scholarships to local graduating seniors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have many more service projects and opportunities to serve, check this space for additions and updates! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
