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 four different local Kiwanis Key Clubs at Troy Athens, Troy High, 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.
Join Us
Our Kiwanis club fulfills the Kiwanis mission by serving our community through various school and community projects. We are focused on our youth’s mental health and suicide prevention in our local community. Join us to be part of the solution and provide tools for our youth. We also partner with local counseling organizations for integrated behavioral health needs.
Are you ready to help create communities that let all children thrive, prosper and grow? It’s pretty easy to do! Simply contact us at [email protected] with your questions.
The kids in your community and the world are counting on you!
GRATITUDE!!! ❤️🙌💕 We can't thank our 2026 Fundraiser sponsors enough as well as our community for showing up on Friday, May 15 to support youth mental health counseling. You are the difference and the change makers we need to help our youth!!
Thank you to Ann O'Neill - Troy School District and Colleen Reveley - Autana Family Therapy Center for providing testimonials on the results being seen after KIT Fund process. Their teams are in the trenches helping students and we love them!
Emerging trends being seen in referrals:
• Continued high prevalence of trauma • Increasing multi-system complexity (family, school, behavioral) • Persistent need for rapid access to care • Strong reliance on school partnerships for referrals
