Since 1938, Kiwanis Club of Canby has offered a helping hand to children. We subscribe wholeheartedly to the Kiwanis International motto, “Serving the Children of the World.” Our volunteer and fundraising activities are directed to activities that help young people.
We welcome new members from all walks of life who share our commitment to volunteering, serving our community, and having fun. Our members represent a mix of ages, genders, occupations, backgrounds, and interests. We are all passionate about making our community and the world a better place for children. Through unique and innovative service projects, we are “Serving the Children of the World.”
Kiwanis Club of Canby provided food and toys for 532 families and toys for 980 children during the Kiwanis Canby Community Food & Toy Drive in 2025. The entire community came together to help 2,158 children and adults.
How our club serves
Our major volunteer activities and programs start with the Kiwanis Canby Community Food & Toy Drive, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library in the Canby School District and Mulino, and the Kiwanis Kiddie Capers Parade (which opens the Clackamas County Fair). But that’s just the beginning. We also provide support and sponsorship to a wide variety of other projects, including scholarships for high school seniors, sponsorship of Scouting, and mentoring students in Kiwanis service leadership clubs – Key Club at Canby High School and Terrific Kids in Canby elementary schools.

The 2025–26 Kiwanis year wrapped up at the end of September with a wonderful celebration, awards ceremony, and the installation of our new officers!
Hosted by outgoing President Judith Neighbours and Past Governor Nicholas Hafev, the evening was a great opportunity to recognize the many hardworking members who give their time, energy, and heart to making a difference in our community.
We would also like to welcome our new leadership team for the 2026–27 Kiwanis year:
✨ President: Fred Merchant ✨ President-Elect: Betty Crawford ✨ Vice President: Hanna Gross ✨Lt. Governor: Judith Neighbours
We look forward to another year of service, friendship, and making our community a place where children thrive!
Thank you to our outgoing leadership for your dedication and leadership, and congratulations to our incoming officers. Here’s to another great year of Kiwanis! ... See MoreSee Less
Kiwanis may have a primary focus on supporting children, but we know that children rely on the adults they love and trust to help them thrive.
That’s why supporting our entire community matters.
We are proud to support the Canby Adult Center and the important work they do for older adults in our community.
