The Kiwanis Club of Ocean Beach began as the Beach Suburbs Kiwanis Club. It was founded on April 6, 1928, with 45 charter members from all the beach areas - not just Ocean Beach but also Point Loma, Pacific Beach, and Mission Beach.

From  its earliest days the Kiwanis Club of Ocean Beach contributed to civic  improvements such as the building of the Ocean Beach Library, and the  Ocean Beach Pier.  From the 1950's to present, the Club has sponsored  the Key Club at Point Loma High School.  At one point the PLHS Key Club  was the largest in the world.  For many years the faculty adviser was  chemistry teacher and club member Paul Shank.
