Builders
Club is the largest service organization for middle school students (ages
12 to 14), with more than 40,000 members worldwide.
The first Builders Club was
chartered in 1975. Today, there are more than 2,000 clubs in Aruba, Australia,
Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, Canada, Italy, Jamaica, Korea, Martinique,
Netherlands Antilles, Philippines, Suriname, Trinidad & Tobago, and
the United States.
Builders Club is a “student-led”
community service organization, which operates under school regulations
and draws its members from the student body. Community-based Builders Clubs
also may be established at community facilities such as: churches, libraries,
YMCA’s, or lodges. Builders Club is unique because a Kiwanis club, composed
of leading business and professional people of the community, serves as
the club’s sponsor.
Builders Club is structured
only on the local club level but is supported by the Kiwanis International
Office in Indianapolis, Indiana, which provides programs, literature, and
opportunities to relate to teenagers from countries all around the world.
