Club Dues Overview (effective October 1, 2024)

Kiwanis dues consist of International dues, District dues, Club dues, plus two fees: Kiwanis Magazine fee and Insurance fees. Dues vary depending on membership type. Below is an overview for the most common dues scenarios for Kiwanis members in the New England and Bermuda District.

Member Type	Most Kiwanis Members	Life Members*	Family Members*	SLP Alumni (Years 1 + 2)*
International Dues	$77	$0	$38.50	$0
District Dues	$25	$25*	$12.50	$0

Life Members – Kiwanians who achieve life member status pay $1,115 one time (15 times annual International Dues) and are then not charged International Dues from then on. A Life Member must still pay District Dues, Kiwanis International Fees, and Club dues. Please note, this only applies to the member’s primary Kiwanis Club. If a life member joins a second Kiwanis Club, they will be charged full dues for that second club. Learn more here.

*District Life Members – At the 2023 District Convention, the House of Delegates voted to create a District Life Membership option. The cost is $375 (15 times annual District Dues). More information is coming soon about how to apply for District Life Membership

Family Members – This program has been discontinued. However, Kiwanians who became Family Members during the trial period are “grandfathered in” and continue to receive the discount. Family Membership designates one primarily member in the household who pays full dues. Other household members may be designated as Family Members. They are charged 1/2 International Dues, 1/2 District Dues, full insurance fees, and no magazine fee.

SLP Alumni – Alumni of Key Club, Circle K, and other SLPs may join Kiwanis at a discounted rate. Their first two years in Kiwanis, both Kiwanis International and the District waive their dues, but not the fees (magazine and insurance). Total dues and fees for those two years are $30, plus your club dues if you don’t also waive them.

New Member Prorated Dues (effective October 1)

When a new member joins Kiwanis, their Kiwanis Club is charged prorated dues and fees based on the month they join the Kiwanis Club. On each subsequent October 1, all members will then be assessed the full annual dues and fees amount ($107 for most members).
