Brittany Campbell of Lansdowne Elementary in Lexington won the K-Kids District speech contest and was judged runner-up in the International competition.
K-Kids is the newest and fastest growing service organization for elementary students worldwide. These clubs are ideally suited for students in grades 1 through 5 (ages 6 to 12).
K-Kids is a "student-led" community-service organization, which operates under school regulations and draws its members from the student body.
K-Kids clubs can also be established in a community-based organization. Such organizations might include, but are not limited to: community library, Boys Club, Girls Club, YMCA, YWCA, or a church.
K-Kids is unique because it's sponsored by a local Kiwanis club, composed of leading business and professional people of the community.
The K-Kids' motto is "We Build," and its objectives are:
To provide opportunities for working together in service to school and community. To develop leadership potential. To foster and development of strong moral character. To encourage loyalty to school, community, and nation.

Clubs wishing to charter a new Circle K, Key Club, Builders, AKTion or KKids before Oct 1, has the option to charter with just member dues and to purchase the supporting materials ( banner, bell, gavel, pins, handbooks, etc) a la carte.
For the Charter year, there is no limit as to the number of members a club may have--in other words, for the charter fee the whole school can be members of the club the first year. Dues may be collected on the local level to start the club's treasury.
The paperwork for the Petition to Charter for all clubs will be changing slightly--mostly in the check off section to be sure the sponsorship fee is included with the Petition.
If you have any questions, please contact the chartered youth administrator
Please note--the $150 KKids fee is an yearly fee. After the charter year, the other clubs just pay the regular International and approprate District and Club dues.
