Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community at a time.
Care and concern for the youth of the Arkansas River Valley is the blood that runs through the veins of the Russellville Kiwanis Club. The organization has assisted the needs of children for all these years since 1951. Through the dedicated and tireless work of our members we are making a difference in the lives of the children of the Arkansas River Valley. The Russellville Kiwanis Club was created in 1951.
