Mission and Vision

Kiwanis Club of Troy and Key Clubs – Christmas Gloves, Mittens, and Socks project

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!

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.

The Troy Kiwanis Mission & Vision

Kiwanis empowers communities to improve the world by making lasting differences in the lives of children. The Troy Kiwanis mission and vision is focused on helping youth obtain the mental health counseling needed to overcome multiple versions of mental health illness. From suicide prevention awareness forums to paying for counseling sessions for those in financial need. When we replace the “i” in mental health illness with “we”, it becomes mental health wellness!

We also focus on developing our youth into leaders by providing them with opportunities to serve the public and have discussions with community leaders and professionals. We support three different local Kiwanis Key Clubs at Troy Athens, International Academy East and International Academy Okma high schools.

Kiwanis Service

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

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 — 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.
