During the Circle K International Education and Leadership Conference, the following awards were presented to honor some of our outstanding members, clubs and adult advisors for their work over the past year. Additionally, we celebrate the impact, the leadership and the work that has been done to bring about positive change in communities across the globe inspiring others to do the same.
