Kiwanis International was founded in 1915 by a group of businessmen in Detroit, Michigan. The organization was originally called the Supreme Lodge Benevolent Order of Brothers, but changed its name to Kiwanis a year later.
Kiwanis became an international organization with the founding of the Kiwanis Club of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, in 1916. Kiwanis clubs formed in communities across the United States and Canada until the 1960s, when worldwide expansion was approved. Today, Kiwanis Clubs are helping children thrive, prosper and grow in nearly 80 nations and geographic locations.
The Michigan District of Kiwanis is accepting applications for students in grades 9-12 who are interested in going into the Law Enforcement Career field.
Clubs can sponsor students in their area or a student looking for a sponsor from around the state of Michigan. Cost is $595 per student and includes a $100 non refundable deposit.
