The Metro Fayette Kiwanis Club, a noontime organization in Fayetteville, is serious about its partnership with area high school students.

The club meets each Tuesday at noon at the IHOP and works with youth in each level of schools.

The Metro Fayette organization sponsors Key Club at Sandy Creek High School, a Builders Club at Whitewater and Flat Rock middle schools, and a K-Club at Tyrone Elementary. Club members meet with these groups to plan joint projects. It supports the promotion of ideals of voluntary service as a means to improve lives and give something back to the community.

"We are very proud to sponsor these idealistic and caring young people," said Metro president Forrest Cate. "Kiwanis exists to serve the community, and we believe that one of the most important services we can perform is to passalong the ideals of voluntarism and serving others to the next generation."
