Welcome to...
A worldwide volunteer organization, Kiwanis International was founded in 1915 in Detroit and now with headquarters in Indianapolis.
Kiwanis is a Global organization of volunteers improving the World one Child and one Community at a time.
Kiwanis International is a thriving organization of service- and community-minded individuals who support children and young adults around the world. More than 600,000 Kiwanis-family members in 91 countries respond to the needs of their communities and pool their financial and human resources to address issues worldwide. Through these efforts, Kiwanis International truly is "Serving the Children of the World."
The Kiwanis Club of Barrie was started in 1922 and is the longest serving Service Club in Simcoe County. On August 15, 2012 we celebrated 90 years of service to the Greater Barrie Area.
Membership includes men and women who wish to make the community a better place by providing their volunteer efforts.
Supporting the community requires volunteers. "WE NEED YOU."

Ukrainian Flight to Freedom Fund
The Kiwanis Club of Barrie, with the approval of the Kiwanis Foundation of Canada, has created a fund to support Ukraine Families coming to Canada. This Fund will allow Clubs that are flying families from Ukraine into Eastern Canada to request matching support to assist with their cost.
The Kiwanis Foundation of Canada have agreed to hold funds in the "Flight To Freedom Fund". This allows Individuals and Clubs who are not involved directly with a Ukraine Family to contribute their financial support to Clubs that are directly involved.
