Who We Are

What is Circle K International?

Originally founded in 1936 as a fraternity at Washington State University, Circle K International original vision was to assist young men who needed financial aid attend college. Fast forward to 1947, and CKI was officially recognized as a service oriented organization , with the first club under this new vision being chartered at Carthage College in Carthage, Illinois. Today, CKI has over 13,000 members spread across 550 campuses worldwide, all centered around the goal of promoting & fostering its three tenets: service, leadership, and fellowship!

Circle K Pledge

“…our first tenet that we follow. Givin back to our community today not tomorrow…”

The first and most fundamental tenet of Circle K International is Service. Through Service, we strive to make our communities and the world a better place, one service project at a time. Here at CSUF Circle K, we provided all our members many opportunities to leave their mark and make a difference in their communities.

Members have the opportunity to make life long friendships and connections with their fellow club members, within the division, district, and even outside of Circle K in the form of other people under the Kiwanis umbrella or even people we meet along the way out in the real world.
