DISTRICT PROJECTS
Major Emphasis
KIWIN'S members currently will focus their time and talents on Live2Learn, specifically focused on 5-9 year old youth, with the main goals of promoting education and building literary skills. This program not only creates endless possibilities to strengthen the common goal of service, but also allows each KIWIN'S member to develop into a well-rounded individual community leader and lifelong advocate for children's education.
LQ KIWIN'S
OUR MISSION
KIWIN’S, the 32nd District of Key Club International, is a student led community service club oriented around character, inclusiveness, leadership, and being caring. We aim to promote leadership development, to create better relations between our school faculty and Kiwanis members, and to create a more positive society through community service. La Quinta KIWIN’S, as one of the biggest KIWIN’S clubs in California, strives to be a family oriented club that betters the community through our service events. We fall under the Jet Division which is a larger branch of our family. In addition, under that division, we are also a part of the KIWIN'S district, or the 32nd district in Key Club International.

KIWIN'S ORGANIZATION
CLUB LEVEL
Each KIWIN'S club is required to hold weekly meetings to keep members informed on projects. Students elect officers each year or semester. The Club Board of Directors, consisting of officers and/or chairpersons, determine the Club's various service deeds and delegates authority to committees and members.
DIVISIONAL LEVEL
Each of the nine KIWIN'S Divisions (Crystal, Diamond, Emerald, Goldstone, Jade, Jet, Ruby, Sapphire, Turquoise, Coral (inactive), and Topaz (inactive) is headed by a Lieutenant Governor who functions on the Divisional and District level. The LTG is responsible for the welfare of clubs in the division. By holding Divisional Council Meetings, members from all the clubs in that Division are able to come together to discuss Divisional and District business. Club officers are trained and divisional projects are also planned.
