The Kiwanis Club of Lake Wales has been in existence for 75 years, and sponsors many events for the benefit of our community. We invite you to attend, and enjoy a great time. We sponsor a number of events for children throughout the year, including a Christmas Parade, an Easter Egg Hunt, and a Hallowe'en party. Our biggest annual event is our Pancake Breakfast and Auction, at which we raise the funds that support our programs throughout the year.Kiwanis is named after a Native American word meaning "to express one's self."

The Kiwanis Club is an international service organization, open to both men and women. We donate more than $20,000 each year to area youth activites. We also sponsor youth clubs in area colleges, high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools, under the Circle K, Key Club, Builders Club, and K-Kids banners.
