Wisconsin-Upper Michigan Kiwanis District

The Wisconsin-Upper Michigan Kiwanis District was well represented at the 2023 Kiwanis International Convention held in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Kiwanis helps kids around the world. The Wisconsin-Upper Michigan District was established in 1918. More than 100 years later, the WI-UM Kiwanis District remains active with 14 divisions and 120 clubs. Our district looks out for our clubs and the Kiwanis international organization takes on large-scale challenges, such as fighting disease and poverty. Our Kiwanis members are generous with their 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 Kiwanis Mission & Vision

Kiwanis empowers communities to improve the world by making lasting differences in the lives of children. Kiwanis strives to be a positive influence in communities worldwide — so that one day, all children will wake up in communities that believe in them, nurture them and provide the support they need to thrive. Our Kiwanis club fulfills the Kiwanis mission by serving our community through Kiwanis Community Service Projects.

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 district 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.
