Hi and welcome to Circle K International of HELP University College!

Circle K International is a collegiate service organization with a worldwide membership that promotes fellowship, leadership, and service.

Although each Circle K club is sponsored by a Kiwanis club, college and university students govern the organization on all levels.
A board of officers on the district level, and an International Board of Trustees comprise the leadership teams.

Our Mission :
Developing college and university students into a global network of responsible citizens and leaders with a lifelong commitment to service.

Service Mission:
Above all else, CKI is a service organization whose members are dedicated to improving their schools and communities.
Virtually any unanswered need is a potential opportunity for Circle K commitment and dedication.

The CKI Service Initiative, Focusing on the Future: Children, was designed to involve all Circle K members in projects that address the problems and issues that face children worldwide, ages six-13.
Through personal interaction and public awareness, Circle K members are enabling children to develop the skills and ideals necessary to be successful.

A little about the past:

In 1936, the Kiwanis Club of Pullman, Washington, established “Circle K House” at Washington State College, which was rented to young men who needed assistance to attend college.
For ten years the "Circle K House" became affiliated with a Greek letter organization, although it continued to be sponsored by the Pullman Kiwanis Club.

Eleven years later in 1947, Circle K transitioned from a fraternity to a service-oriented organization.
That year, during September, the first Circle K club similar to our present day organization, was chartered at Carthage College in Carthage, Illinois.

In 1949, two more clubs were organized, including one in Canada, making Circle K international.
There were 147 Circle K clubs in 1955, when Circle K was officially recognized as a sponsored organization of Kiwanis International.

Here at HELP University College our regular meeting time would be on every Wednesday from 12.30p.m to 2p.m.
However the venue varies from time to time.

If you are interested in joining us, please feel free to contact us at cki_huc@yahoo.com

Live to Serve, Love to Serve
