ABOUT US
Building tomorrow's leaders through serving our communities today
Circle K International (CKI) is a service, leadership development, and friendship organization, sponsored by a Kiwanis club on a college or university campus. It is a self-governing organization and elects its own officers, conducts its own meetings, determines its own service activities, and establishes its own dues structure.
​
CKI is the largest service organization of its kind, with thousands of members in hundreds of clubs on campuses worldwide. It offers numerous opportunities for service learning and character education programming.
WHAT WE STAND FOR
OUR TENETS
SERVICE
Service is the heart of CKI. Collectively, CKI members volunteer more than one million hours on their campuses and in their communities annually. Without service, CKI would be just another campus activity. Through service, college and university students are making the world a better place.
LEADERSHIP
The potential of CKI lies in its ability to positively influence members of society who are facing ultimate personal decisions and those who will one day create the vision of humanity for generations to come. Leadership opportunities afford CKI members the resources and tools needed to become active citizens. CKI members can assume leadership responsibilities at all levels of the organization and through various experiential training conferences.
FELLOWSHIP
With each element and aspect of CKI, members experience fellowship and develop lifelong relationships with fellow collegians, advisors, Kiwanians, and citizens in their communities. Through activities such as mentoring children, networking with professionals, or bowling as a group, CKI members develop social skills, meet new people, and strengthen relationships.
