Central Broward Aktion Club Lauderhill-Wingate Oaks Aktion Club is a community service group composed of adult citizens who are developmentally disadvantaged.

Members of Aktion Club strive to return to their communities the benefits, help and caring they have received, while at the same time developing important skills. The Goals of Aktion Club

• To develop initiative and leadership.
• To provide experience in living and working together.
• To serve the community.
• To prepare for useful citizenship. Who sponsors an Aktion Club? Aktion Clubs are sponso

red by local Kiwanis clubs in cooperation with a local agency or sheltered workshop for citizens with mental retardation. The first Aktion Club was piloted in Florida in 1987. Why have an Aktion Club? Persons who are developmentally disadvantaged often have many skills but little opportunity to develop or apply them. These special citizens have few chances to interact socially and sometimes never learn to function in society. Too often, they are isolated and dependent when they could be making valuable contributions to themselves and to the world around them. Shelters and agencies that serve those developmentally disadvantaged do their best to help their clients reach their potentials. Many of these agencies, however, do not have the funding or staff to provide the activities and individual attention their clients need. The volunteer effort of local Kiwanis sponsors can address these many concerns through Aktion Club. What does an Aktion Club Do? An Aktion Club performs a variety of services to the community. It conducts fund raisers such as carwashes, paper drives, and recycling projects to raise money for needs in the community. Aktion members do may other community services, including environmental projects, park beautification, food drives and nursing homes visitations, as well as assisting Kiwanis clubs with their projects. Aktion Clubs also take time out for fun! Aktion members visit zoos, go to sporting events and visit museums among many other activities. Aktion members play as hard as they work.
