K-Kids, a Kiwanis club sponsored program, has seen steady growth since its inception in 1990. Begun in Florida, where
1998-99 Kiwanis Governor Lamar Fisher developed the program and provided continuing support, K-Kids soon spread to other Kiwanis
districts. As a result of its growth, K-Kids was adopted as a sponsored program on October 1, 1998. The first club chartered
by International was the K-Kids Club of Brooksville Elementary School in Florida.
Today, in addition to the US, there are clubs in Australia, Bahamas, Barbados, Canada, Italy, Jamaica, Malaysia,
Martinique, Nigeria, the Philippines, and Trinidad and Tobago. There are over 600 K-Kids clubs across the world!
Here at VABHOE we have strived to help others who are less fortunate than we are since our conception in
2001. We have grown over the past few years from a seed to a well established oak tree and serve as a model for other chapters
of K-Kids.
