K-Kids

Begun in 1990 in Florida, K-Kids is the youngest and fastest growing service organization for elementary students worldwide. These clubs are ideally suited for students in grades 1 through 5 (ages 6 to 12). K-Kids is a "student-led" community-service organization, which operates under school regulations and draws its members from the student body. In addition to the U.S., there are over 600 K-Kids clubs in Australia, the Bahamas, Barbados, Canada, Italy, Jamaica, Malaysia, Martinique, the Philippines, Trinidad and Tobago. 

The K-Kids' Pledge:

"As a K-Kid, I promise to serve my neighborhood and my school; I will show respect toward my environment; and I will try to make the world a better place in which to live."
The K-Kids' motto is "We Build," and its objectives are: 

• To provide opportunities for working together in service to school and community. 

• To develop leadership potential. 

• To foster and development of strong moral character. 

• To encourage loyalty to school, community, and nation.
