CKI is the world’s premier collegiate service organization. A member of the Kiwanis family,
CKI boasts a membership of more than 12,500 members on more than 500 campuses around the globe.
Are you looking for a way to continue your involvement
in community service? When you arrive on campus, you
will find that numerous organizations will vie for your
time and membership. In college, you will find that many
clubs and organizations promote volunteerism and
community involvement. In fact, many universities have
adopted a service learning program. However, these
programs, clubs, and student organizations do not offer
the blend of service, leadership, and fellowship that
you will find in CKI. Circle K’ers are committed to
service as an important element of club activities.
Mission
Developing college and
university students into a global network of
responsible citizens and leaders with a lifelong
commitment to service.
Pledge
I pledge to uphold the Objects
of Circle K International, to foster compassion
and goodwill toward others through service and
leadership, to develop my abilities and the
abilities of all people, and to dedicate myself
to the realization of mankind’s potential.
Vision
To be the leading global
community-service organization on college and
university campuses that enriches the world one
member, one child and one community at a time.
Motto
Live to serve, love to serve
Tenets
Service
Service is the heart of CKI. Collectively, CKI
members perform more than 1 million hours of
service on their campuses and in their
communities every year. Without service, CKI
would be just another campus activity. Through
service, college students are making the world a
better place.
Leadership
The potential of CKI lies in its ability to
positively influence members of society who are
facing ultimate personal decisions and those who
will one day create the vision of mankind for
generations to come. Leadership opportunities
afford CKI members the resources and tools
needed to become active citizens. Members can
assume leadership responsibilities at all levels
of the organization and through various
experiential training conferences.
Fellowship
CKI members experience fellowship and develop
lifelong relationships with fellow collegians,
advisors, Kiwanians, and citizens in their
communities every single day. Whether a member
is mentoring a child, networking with a
businessman, or bowling with members, he or she
is developing social skills, meeting new people,
and strengthening relationships.
