The Kiwanis Club of DeFuniak Springs, Florida is a service organization comprised of caring men and women from all walks of life. Our objective is to bring aid to children in need. The majority of our efforts benefit children in this community. A portion of the funds we raise go to help meet Kiwanis International objectives which focus on the special needs of young children from prenatal development to age five. We serve by sponsoring fund raising activities, which provide monetary support for children’s programs and through personal involvement in the giving of our time and skills. Anyone interested in serving others will feel very welcome here.
