We have four Key Clubs involved with the Levittown Kiwanis Club:

The Division Avenue High School Key Club

The MacArthur High School Key Club

The Levittown Career and Technical Center Key Club

The Island Trees High School Key Club

They are student run replicas of our Levittown Kiwanis Club

They pay dues to join

Elect local and national officers

They meet on a weekly basis

Go to a state convention

They decide on fund-raisers to help with their charities like:

Holiday Food Baskets

Sending Kids to Camp

Buying toys for needy children

Helping Senior Citizens

They raise all their own money and put it back into the community. What a wonderful service they perform for Levittown! When you see one of their fund-raisers advertised, please join in. You will be very pleased with the caliber of young people that are in the key clubs.

The Key Clubs are one of Levittown's Kiwanis Club greatest assets. Our future Levittown Kiwanis Club is in front of our eyes.

Are you interested in joining? Please come to one of our meetings for a "look see." I guarantee you'll be impressed.

Did you know Kiwanis has a web site? For you computers hackers: check Kiwanis International website at www.kiwanis.org.

Please, be a Kiwanian!

Please save all your soda/drink flip top tabs and all your Campbell soup labels and General Mills box tops and turn them in to the Levittown Kiwanis Club at one of our meetings. You may ask: why labels and soda tabs? The labels and box tops go to St. Jude's Ranch for Children, which they redeem for a monetary amount. The soda tabs go to the Fork Lane School in Hicksville and they give them to the Nassau County Medical Center Burn Unit.
