Key Leader by Kiwanis International is a weekend leadership program for high school students put on by the Rocky Mountain District Kiwanis organization. Our mission is to inspire young people to achieve their personal best through service leadership. Key Leader has served more than 33,000 students at over 660 Key Leader events around the world.

Key Leader teaches service leadership and social-emotional skills essential for students to become values-driven leaders in their communities. The program is based in part on Robert Greenleaf’s “Servant Leadership” model and is delivered by a professional, program trained facilitator. Key Leader is an essential program, designed to break down the isolation many students face in an era of smartphones and social media while teaching critical leadership skills.

Each Key Leader Program is led by a qualified and certified lead facilitator, who oversees the implementation of the curriculum and leads all large group sessions. Older students, including previous Key Leader attendees, serve as small group facilitators for activities in small groups called “neighborhoods.”

The program flows through large- and small- group sessions, time for personal reflection, interactive activities, “challenge course” activities, and is anchored by several videos, including a collection from “The Collector of Bedford Street,” which follows the community leadership of Larry Selman, known as the “Shepherd of Greenwich Village.”

RMD Key Leader is a Service Leadership Program of the Rocky Mountain District of Kiwanis International and the Kiwanis Rocky Mountain District Foundation. The District's Foundation is a registered 501(c) 3 non-profit organization.
