Let's change the world together


One of the best things about belonging to an Optimist Club is the team spirit that comes with belonging to a group of like-minded individuals. I believe every Optimist Club member would agree that we work together in our local communities to make the world a more positive place to live and raise our families.

From hosting chalk art contests and movies in the park to sponsoring scholarship contests and after-school parties, among other things, we work with children and adults to provide activities specific to the community where the Optimist Club resides. 

Our projects may vary from Optimist Club to Optimist Club, but the purposes of Optimist International remain the same:
  • To develop optimism as a philosophy of life, utilizing the tenets of the Optimist Creed;
  • To promote an active interest in good government and civic affairs;
  • To inspire respect for the law;
  • To promote patriotism and work for international accord and friendship among all people;
  • To aid and encourage the development of youth, in the belief that the giving of one’s self in service to others will advance the well-being of humankind, community life and the world
Yes, Optimist Clubs and their members are here to change the world. Join us, won't you?
