Youth Clubs
Builder's Club members at St. Joseph Regional School with the donations collected for Thanksgiving Baskets
The Kiwanis Club of Keene currently sponsors three youth clubs:
• Builders' Club at St Joseph Regional School in Keene
• Key Club at Keene High School
• Key Club at Monadnock Regional High School
Our sponsored youth groups independently initiate service projects and community service activities throughout the school year. Our Kiwanis Club works through an adviser to each organization to coordinate our participation with their activities or to have them work with us on major service programs and fund raisers. We are justly proud of our youth groups and their accomplishments which make our community a much better place to live. The activities listed below are a small portion of the many projects they are involved in:
• Raising money for children in Africa
• Visiting our state representatives to encourage them to support anti-smoking initiatives
• Alzheimer’s Awareness Walks to raise money to support medical research
• A yearly “Seniors Prom” to celebrate the senior citizens in our community
• Making blankets and raising money for the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Institute in Boston
• Clearing trash from Highway 9 entrance to Keene
• Collecting and distributing warm clothing at Common Cathedral in downtown Boston during the Winter
