The Capital District of Kiwanis International (composed of all the Kiwanis Clubs in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia) was organized on August 29, 1918 with only two clubs. Now, over 100 years later, the Capital District remains active with 7 regions, 20 divisions and over 170 clubs.
What is Kiwanis?
Kiwanis International is a global community of clubs, members and partners dedicated to improving the lives of children one community at a time. Today, we stand with more than 550,000 members from K-Kids to Key Club to Kiwanis and many ages in between in 80 countries and geographic areas. Each community has different needs, and Kiwanis empowers members to pursue creative ways to serve the needs of children, such as fighting hunger, improving literacy and offering guidance.
Kiwanis clubs host nearly 150,000 service projects each year.

Congratulations to our March District Member of the Month, John Plenge from the Kiwanis Club of Botetourt, VA!
“John is currently serving as President of the Botetourt Club and exemplifies the definition of an effective leader. At club meetings, he exudes enthusiasm and a genuine love for Kiwanis, children and his community. He is extremely passionate about literacy and is leading the charge for the club to build partnerships with the local library as well as Dolly Parton's Imagination Library Program. The club's and John's passion for literacy translates into their support of the local schools through the dictionary program, and last October John helped distribute 320 to the third graders at Buchanan Elementary. John is always open to new ideas, is very approachable to all, and seeks synergy. Under his leadership, the club has added two new members this year and had a very successful social at Stoney Brook Winery last fall.”
