General Information

About the Club
The Kiwanis Club of Brookfield is a service organization. It's primary focus is on the local community but is also a member club of Division Five, Illinois-Iowa District and Kiwanis International .

The Kiwanis Club of Brookfield was chartered in April 1927 with twenty-five charter members. The club provided people an opportunity to give of themselves, their talent and time to others. For 75 years, the record of service and contribution to the welfare of the Village of Brookfield has been an outstanding one. The club members credit much of their success to village residents. Residents give unselfish financial support to the club's fundraisers which enables the Kiwanis to continue programs and to focus on new areas of service.
