Crocheting blankets for kids undergoing chemo, grilling pancakes for our Annual Pancake Breakfast, serving pizza to our homeless community, distributing food backpacks to needy families, cleaning up our streets and waterways or participating in our District Convention are just a few of the many projects we do. Our Kiwanis Club is generous with its time, creative with our ideas, passionate about making a difference and we have fun along the way!
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.
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.

On October 1, we say goodbye to our president of two years (and three previous years), Dennis Buchta. Dennis, thank you for your dedicated service. Your passion for Kiwanis and for the children of our neighborhood shines through everything you do. We are grateful you’ll continue to be an active and engaged member of our outstanding club.
We also extend a warm welcome to our new president, Jean McManus! Jean, we look forward to your leadership and the exciting year ahead. Our members are ready to support you as you begin this new role. ... See MoreSee Less
Our Oakland Park Kiwanis members had a busy and meaningful meeting today. We recognized our outgoing president, Dennis Buchta, with a pin honoring his dedicated service. We also learned that Dennis has served as president five times over the years — an incredible commitment to our club. Thank you, Dennis.
We were thrilled to welcome three new members: Chris Fisher, Janaina Tomita, and Geo Martos. We’re excited to have you join our Kiwanis family and look forward to your involvement in our activities.
Our club is also preparing for one of our annual projects — distributing new dictionaries to all third graders in our Oakland Park schools. Members are labeling the books now, and they’ll be delivered to the classrooms soon.
If you’re looking to make a positive impact in our community, please consider joining this fantastic group of people who are dedicated to serving Oakland Park. ... See MoreSee Less
