Service Clubs

Kelowna Jaycees are a group of young male professionals and entrepreneurs that strive to grow as individuals while positively impacting our community, Kelowna BC.

We look to strengthen our leadership characteristics by being involved, taking different courses, or working on local, regional, national and international events and projects - all voluntary and all in a welcoming environment.

The Kelowna Jaycees are affiliated with Junior Chamber Internatioinal (JCI); a worldwide federation of young leaders, between the ages of 18-40. The organizatioin has been referred to as the premiere leadership development organization for young people.

Kiwanis is a global group of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child & one community at a time.

Through guidance and example, Kiwanis works everyday around the world to develop future generations of leaders. Kiwanis is a thriving organization, with community minded men and woman who are revitalizing neighborhoods, building playgrounds, feeding the hungry and supporting children and young adults.

We believe the most effective way to enhance a community, is to enhance its children. When you give a child a chance to learn, experience, dream and succeed, great things will happen!
