Awards

Outstanding CKI Alumnus Award
The Circle K International Outstanding Alumnus Award is designed to recognize one outstanding Circle K Alumnus who has remained committed to the realization of humanity's potential after his/her years as a Circle K member. To be eligible for this award, the nominated individual must have been a dues-paid member of Circle K International for at least one administrative year. Nominees may have continued with their involvement with the Kiwanis-family upon their graduation, have accomplishments in the non-profit or other service-oriented fields. However, this is not a requirement. The recipient of this award shall be invited to attend the Circle K International Convention and accept the recognition.

Nominations should be written as a narrative or letter to the CKI board and include a brief description of why the person should be considered for this honor.

Circle of Service Award
The Circle of Service Award was created to annually recognize and honor an individual within Kiwanis International who has made the most outstanding contribution to all of Circle K International. Those individuals, who are neither salaried Kiwanis officials nor Circle K members, shall be eligible to receive this award. A majority vote of the CKI Board will determine the winner of the award. Individuals may not be recognized with this award more than once. Individuals may be nominated by any dues paid member of the organization. Recipients will be selected by the CKI Board for the announcement at the following Circle K International Convention. If, in the determination of the CKI Board, no qualified nominees have been submitted, then the award shall not be given in that year.

A completed application package must include a nomination essay, written by the nominator, and up to five supporting documents. The supporting documents may include essays by other individuals, letters of recommendation, or other documents as the nominator sees fit.

Humanitarian Award
The Humanitarian Award will be determined by a selection committee. Outside nominations will not be accepted.
