​GET FIT & GIVE BACK WITH K.I.W.L!

KIWL is an international group of men & women in Japan who 'get fit & give back' through sport & leisure. Cycling, motorcycling, walking, running, Futsal, golf, pub quizzes and social nights, we have something for everyone! Check our Events page for details.

Funds raised are deployed by our chosen charity, YouMeWe, improving the lives of abused & neglected children living in care in Japan and giving them greater hope of successful outcomes in adult life through education in IT coding and programming.

They offer support programs to allow a child to become a productive, independent young adult in their community. They help develop skills like language, writing and digital literacy, thus increasing self-confidence. They also help with tutoring, internship opportunities, and guidance on higher education. Attained skills, improved communication, and an understanding of options give the kids a clearer future. KIWL helps fund the 'Digital Citizen Classes' giving kids the opportunity to learn IT skills.
