Metro Detroit Young Professionals Kiwanis chartered in August 2015. We emphasize the fun aspect of Kiwanis and meet less to ultimately serve more. Our areas of focus are:
In 2018, our club adopted Little Free Libraries as our signature service project. We are excited to foster a love of reading across all ages! We installed and maintain the following Little Free Libraries:
Grant Park in Royal Oak
Oakland Family Services in Pontiac
River Bends Park in Shelby Township
Richmond Middle School in Richmond
Socials
We host monthly socials to allow our members to get to know one another outside of meetings and service projects. Popular socials include Detroit City Football Club games, ice skating, cider mills, and our annual holiday party. No matter the event, we always have a great time!
Fundraisers
We run a number of fundraisers throughout the year, including football Squares boards and our annual Euchre tournament. The money raised supports our own service initiatives as well as:
Adopt A Family: Adopt a family for the holidays.
Kiwanis of Michigan Foundation: Support key programs at four children’s hospitals around Michigan that provide therapies and activities to allow kids to be kids while undergoing treatment.
Kiwanis Children’s Fund: Support Kiwanis International’s programs on kids’ health and nutrition, education and literacy, and youth leadership development.
Richmond Middle School Builder’s Club
In 2019, we began sponsoring Richmond Middle School’s Builders Club. These amazing middle school students have continued on their leadership journey and make a tremendous impact in their school and community. The work they do is truly inspirational and we can’t wait to see what they do in the future. We are proud to instill a lifelong commitment to service in each of them.

Mittens for Detroit works to ensure that kids, teens, and adults across Detroit have new, warm mittens and gloves during the colder months. With thousands of donations coming in each year, volunteers play an important role in sorting and managing their large inventory.
Earlier this year, Mittens for Detroit experienced a devastating flood when a pipe burst above their office, causing significant damage. We’ll help them get back on their feet by assisting with office cleanup, organizing, and inventorying gloves and mittens.
