Youth Programs

Sertoma clubs serve youth in many ways. Sertoma youth programs include Serteen and Collegiate clubs and Sertoma Fantasy Sports Camps.

Serteen and Collegiate clubs are organized so young men and women may become active in providing service to their communities. These clubs first became part of the Sertoma family in July 1971.

The need for a strong youth program within the Sertoma family is evident in many aspects of life. Our local communities need youth to be active in serving mankind. While members of Serteen and Collegiate clubs serve others, they learn about themselves. Sertoma needs to invest in our nation's greatest resource — YOUTH — and help young people become better citizens of tomorrow.

Serteen Clubs
The Serteen club program is open to students 11 through 19. The program promotes the growth of individuals, good government, leadership, mutual tolerance and understanding among all people, and friendship and fellowship as opportunities for Service to Mankind. Serteen clubs are organized in junior high, middle school, high school or in the community. Membership is non-exclusive – not limited by gender, culture, race or faith.

Serteen Sertoma clubs have their own constitution, bylaws, manuals, logos, individual and club awards, reports, newsletters, etc. They have a scholarship program funded by Sertoma. For Sertoma clubs interested in building Sertoma youth clubs, the Sponsorships Department offers a free brochure, "How to Build a Serteen Club —Ten Steps to Success," and 100 Serteen recruiting brochures at no charge.

Collegiate Clubs
Sertoma Collegiate club membership is limited to college-enrolled students. The program promotes the growth of individuals, good government, leadership, mutual tolerance and understanding among all people, and friendship and fellowship as opportunities for Service to Mankind. Collegiate clubs are organized on college and university campuses or in the community. Membership is non-exclusive – not limited by gender, culture, race or faith. Collegiate Sertoma clubs have their own constitution, bylaws, manuals, logos, individual and club awards, reports, newsletters, etc. They also have a scholarship program funded by Sertoma.

For information on building a Serteen or Collegiate club, or for a full Serteen or Collegiate Manual, please contact Sertoma Headquarters at (816) 333-8300.

Sertoma Fantasy Sports Camps
Many Sertoma clubs organize a camp to give hard of hearing and other challenged children an opportunity to learn sports and perhaps receive what participants have called a "life changing" experience. Sertoma members, coaches, and in many cases, professional athletes, work together to give challenged youth an opportunity to learn and play sports that would not be possible in many school and community leagues. For more information on starting a Fantasy Sports Camp in your area, please contact Sertoma Headquarters at (816) 333-8300.
