🌎 Kiwanis empowers communities to improve the world by making lasting difference in the lives of children. Kiwanis has been active in Sumter since 1922!

We connect communities with opportunities to passionately pursue volunteering and fundraising that make a positive & lasting impact with children. Our goal is to help enrich the lives of children and give Kiwanis Club members the opportunity to passionately pursue that goal. We host two large fundraisers throughout the year. Our Annual Maj Gen Olsen Golf Tournament is held in September and our Annual Pancake Day is held in March. Specifically, the Kiwanis Club of Sumter supports the following programs and projects throughout the year in addition to a few more:
-Terrific Kids Programs in local elementary schools
- Key Clubs in local high schools
- An Aktion Club for adults with disabilities
- Scholarships to college students (USC Sumter, CCTC, and Morris College)
- Fingerprint America: fingerprint and DNA kits to parents to identify children
- An annual contribution to Camp Burnt Gin
- Support of Kiwanis International Worldwide Service Projects
- Support for Sumter United Ministries Christmas and Gear up for Learning

Kiwanis Club of Sumter has a monthly lunch meeting on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Currently, we are meeting at the North Hope Center. We are ALWAYS welcoming visitors and potential new members! If you're interested in making a difference in the lives of children, join Kiwanis today!

Did you know that 250 million children worldwide lack basic literacy skills? 📖 When a Kiwanis club project helps a child learn to read, it empowers that child with better opportunities.

Make a gift to The Kiwanis Possibility Project through the Kiwanis Children's Fund to support club projects that open a world of possibilities for kids.
