Where to find Kiwanis logos

To add branding to club materials and communications, get what you need on our website.

Kiwanis International’s logo is the face of the organization. That’s why we make it available for download — so your club can benefit from Kiwanis branding and share the Kiwanis name with your community. 

Of course, logos can be used in different places and in different ways. That’s why we offer a couple different resources on the Kiwanis International website: 

  • The Kiwanis logos page. This is where you can find downloadable files for the Kiwanis seal and the Kiwanis logo (with examples of each on the page, so you can see which is which). You’ll also find tips on usage and details on which formats to download, depending on how and where you’re using them. 
  • Kiwanis custom logos. We also can create a custom logo for your club at no cost. Go to our custom-logo webpage for details and a link to the customization order form. 

The logo is a key part of Kiwanis branding. But it’s just one part. Our branding and marketing webpage has links to all of our resources — such as social media assets (including new assets for the Kiwanis Voices pilot program), tools to promote club anniversaries, our free service for club websites and much more. 

Why sponsor a Kiwanis SLP club?

For Kiwanis clubs considering service and mentorship, check out these reasons to get started.

Now that the 2025-26 Kiwanis year is underway, you and your fellow club members may be discussing whether to sponsor one of our Service Leadership Programs (SLPs). There’s no shortage of great reasons to do so — whether for the first time or as a way of expanding your mentorship to new age groups and locations.

Need help convincing fellow members? According to multiple studies — and Kiwanians’ own experiences — students who volunteer: 

  • Tend to get higher grades. 
  • Improve their social and emotional health. 
  • Strengthen their ties to other youth and adults. 
  • Feel connected to the larger community — and motivated to contribute to it. 
  • Develop leadership abilities that lead to better employment opportunities. 
  • Have better awareness and understanding of public issues. 
  • Get more first-hand experience of diverse cultures and communities. 

By sponsoring and working with Kiwanis SLPs, clubs and members help fulfill a Kiwanis cause: youth leadership development. As members of SLP clubs, students make an impact in the lives of others — and develop skills and self-discipline alongside like-minded peers.

Kiwanis SLPs include K-Kids for students ages 6-12, Builders Club for students ages 11-14, and Key Club for students ages 14-19. Our SLP members also include adults: Circle K International for university and college students, as well as Aktion Club for adults with disabilities. 

 From elementary school to young adulthood, service matters — and so do mentors. Advisors to SLP clubs are models for the benefits of service and fellowship throughout a person’s life. Learn more and find links to each SLP on the Kiwanis website. 

5 steps to start your hunt for sponsors

5 steps to start your hunt for sponsors

Here are some ways to get your club ready to seek out effective sponsorships.

By Tony Knoderer

For Kiwanis clubs around the world, many of the best fundraisers involve sponsorships. They increase club resources, raise your community profile and create access to a pool of potential members — all at the same time. But like most good things, they don’t just happen overnight.  

Sponsorships have to be solicited. Your club can make that work easier by taking these five steps to organize for the sponsorship search:  

  1. Create a demographic report on your club’s membership. Including average age, education level, professional background and anything else that a prospective sponsor might find useful. Use the club data checklist in our downloadable sponsorship toolkit to get started.  
  2. Identify club members who can bring special skills or enthusiasm — or both — to the sponsorship hunt.  
  3. Put together a report on your event. Gather as much information as possible about attendance, demographics and media exposure.  
  4. Identify potential competition for sponsorship funds in your area. For instance, if someone holds a similar event on the same weekend — or even the same month — as yours, you might want to switch dates.  
  5. If you haven’t yet, put someone in charge of your club’s website, newsletter and advertising. A communications director will give you a leg up. 

Of course, this is just the beginning. Fortunately, Kiwanis International provides a comprehensive resource to guide you to the sponsorships you need. With our sponsorship toolkit, you’ll learn how to: 

  • Inventory your club’s marketable assets.  
  • Price your event offerings. 
  • Seek corporate support.  
  • Develop long-term relationships with sponsors.  
  • Save time by using templates for proposal materials.
