Inspired By Every Child
The Kiwanis Club of Asbury Park is a volunteer-driven, non-denominational, nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering individuals and businesses to make a lasting difference in the lives of children in need.
Founded in 1918 and rechartered in 2020, we are part of Kiwanis International, a global organization of clubs serving communities in more than 80 countries.
Kiwanis Int'l: Global Service
Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis Club—no matter where it’s located. Collectively, members around the world lead over 150,000 service projects each year and raise nearly $100 million to support children, families, and local communities.
Working together, Kiwanis members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone. The Kiwanis mission is simple yet powerful: to improve the world, one child and one community at a time.
