Kiwanis International
Founded in 1915, Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time.
Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) grow more important each year. That’s why STEM programs are crucial to the Kiwanis cause of education and literacy.
