MWV Kiwanis has a long history in the valley.
Our club supports after school clubs at Kennett High School, most notably the Key Club as well as the sports teams, the vocational programs, the Robotics Club and the music department. We also support children with medical needs and families who need to make long distance visits. We maintain a reading corner at the Emergency Department waiting room at Memorial Hospital for small children. We also have literacy programs in the schools. Groups like Starting Point, Habitat for Humanity, RSVP and the North Conway Community Center also benefit from our work. Almost every public school in the valley as a Kiwanis sponsored K Kid or Builders Club.
