98 Years of Service - The Kiwanis Club of Raleigh was chartered in 1920. With about 200 members, we are one of the largest and oldest Kiwanis clubs in the world. For nearly a century, our club has been serving children of the local community and the world through many projects, including establishing the Kiwanis Park, building a Habitat for Humanity house, raising over $100,000 to help eliminate iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) worldwide, raising over $50,000 for a Kiwanis cabin at Victory Junction, raising over $110,000 for The Eliminate Project to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus (MNT) worldwide, and raising over $385,000 for our 2020 Centennial Parks Project. Additionally, our foundation gives annual grants to many local organizations to benefit children. In 2012, our club was inducted into the Raleigh Hall of Fame.
