Kiwanis clubs sponsor each Circle K club. The WSU Circle K is proud to be sponsored by Detroit #1 Club.
Circle K International
Circle K is a co-educational service, friendship, and leadership development organization. It is a self-governing organization and elects its own officers, conducts its own meetings, determines its own service activities, and establishes its own dues structure. Circle K also provides the opportunity to attend yearly District and International Conventions to meet other members.
Key Club International
Key Club is an international student-led organization that provides its members with opportunities to provide service, build character and develop leadership. Many Key Club members choose to join Circle K in college. Although both organizations provide different opportunities, they share the common goal of service.
