Founding of Club
 
Kiwanis Club of Jacksonville was founded in 1921 . The club began with just 12 members and has grown to its current membership of 134 . Over the years, the club has held many fundraisers, including pancake breakfasts, spaghetti feeds and other events. We help out in the community in a variety of ways, including sponsoring youth groups, highway clean-ups, raising money to benefit children and children’s support groups, and providing scholarships. The club has enjoyed a rich history over the years, with its members coming from fields like accounting, civil service, education, management, and many more.
