Kiwanis One Day, a day when Kiwanis and its family of clubs—Kiwanis Junior, Circle K, Key Club, Aktion Club, Builders Club, and Kiwanis Kids—join forces with their communities for a day of hands-on service. A lot of good work gets done on this day, work that increases Kiwanis’ presence in the community and builds awareness about the value of service.
