Key Club International is the oldest (founded 1925) and one of the largest service programs for high school students. It is a student-led organization whose goal is to encourage leadership through helping others. Key Club International is a part of the Kiwanis International family of service-leadership programs. Many local Key Clubs are sponsored by a local Kiwanis club.
The organization was started by California State Commissioner of Schools Albert C. Olney, and vocational education teacher Frank C. Vincent, who together worked to establish the first Key Club at Sacramento High School in California, on May 7, 1925. Female students were first admitted in 1977, ten years before women were admitted to the sponsoring organization, Kiwanis International.
The Key Club was a jazz club in Newark, New Jersey. It closed in the 1970s, along with other jazz clubs on Halsey Street, such as Sparky J's.

Usage examples of "key club".
I'd got him smashed on vodka by midnight and he'd more or less surfaced at the Key Club during the early hours and didn't remember, for a minute or two, anything about Beirut, and it hadn't been the ego suppressing it - the tension was off at last and he was on the other side of what they'd done to him and that was where he was going to start living again.
