Welcome to the Kiwanis Club of Glenelg! Kiwanians are an eclectic mix of ages, genders, occupations, backgrounds and interests. We are all passionate about making our community and the world a better place for children so they can thrive. We are devoted to serving the children in our local community and also children all across the country and worldwide through unique and innovative service projects and fundraising initiatives. Kiwanis International is now 109 years old. What is Kiwanis? Kiwanis is a global organisation of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time. There are clubs in over 80 countries.
