The Missouri-Arkansas District of Kiwanis International (composed of all the Kiwanis Clubs in Missouri and Arkansas) began with a single club in St. Louis on July 19, 1917. Now, more than 100 years later, The Mo-Ark District remains committed to serving others, with dozens of clubs across its nine regions.
What is Kiwanis?
Kiwanis International is a global community of clubs, members and partners dedicated to improving the lives of children one community at a time. Today, we stand with more than 550,000 members from K-Kids to Key Club to Kiwanis and many ages in between in 80 countries and geographic areas. Each community has different needs, and Kiwanis empowers members to pursue creative ways to serve the needs of children, such as fighting hunger, improving literacy and offering guidance.
Kiwanis clubs host nearly 150,000 service projects each year.
