Circle K International Circle K International (CKI) is the premier collegiate and university community service, leadership development, and friendship organization in the world. With more than 12,600 members in 17 nations, CKI is making a positive impact on the world every day. Circle K clubs are organized and sponsored by a Kiwanis club on a college or university campus. CKI is a self-governing organization and elects its own officers, conducts its own meetings, and determines its own service activities. CKI blends community service and leadership training with the opportunity to meet other college students around the world. Projects such as the Six Cents Initiative, CKI’s International fundraiser that aims to provide water to the 2.2 billion children worldwide who lack safe drinking water, bring CKI members together to make a difference in the world. What is Columbia Circle K all about? Circle K at Columbia focuses on CKI’s three main branches: Service, Leadership, and Fellowship. Some of the projects that we completed include volunteering in the pediatric wing of a local hospital, working at a local soup kitchen, participating in Columbia Community Outreach Day, and assisting with a clothing drive, along with numerous other activities. Circle K is a great way to get involved on campus. You get to meet a lot of people that are dedicated to service, both members of Circle K and members of other clubs. Our members also attend District events, where Circle K clubs from schools all over New York state gather to do community service and learn from each other.
