Kiwanians donated and wrapped gifts for Christian Homes & Family Services foster children.
Our club participates in various projects throughout the year that involve community service and assisting children locally and worldwide. Additionally, we have speakers at our weekly meetings to explore topics of interest to the membership. We engage in several social activities to share experiences, talents, and our collective interests. All represent significant opportunities for service, friendship, and personal growth.
Below are the projects and activities in which we are currently involved:
SIGNATURE PROJECT –“CHRISTMAS IN THE CITY”is a time to love and support foster families with Christian Homes & Family Services. We purchase Christmas gifts for the foster children and host the foster families for a fun night at Safety City with treats, crafts, and more.
SERVING OUR SCHOOLS – Reading to students at TLCA Elementary
SUMMER FEEDING PROGRAM– Fighting hunger in our community! We serve lunches during school breaks in the weeks leading up to the new school year, as well as during Christmas and Spring Break. It’s a small way we can make a big difference.
BUG PROGRAM – Promoting academic excellence of students at TLCA Elementary
TEXAS RAMP PROJECT – Building wheelchair ramps for the elderly and disabled
WEST TEXAS FAIR & RODEO – Work at the ticket booth
MEALS ON WHEELS – Deliver meals to individuals who cannot get out on their own
🔨 Service in Action: Ramp Build Week! From modules to completion, your Abilene Kiwanians have been hard at work last week! On Thursday, our crew kicked things off in the workshop, measuring, cutting, and assembling the core ramp modules. When Saturday rolled around, it was time to put the pieces together on-site—and the final product turned out fantastic!
A huge shoutout to the dedicated team who made it happen: Bill Hoogstra, Dave Nickel, Guinn Smith, and Elizabeth Clinton Gray .
We love serving our Abilene community and helping neighbors regain their independence, one step (and one ramp) at a time. ❤️
Thank you to all the volunteers, Kiwanians, and patrons who made this year's Pancake Day the best on yet! We are proud to announce we broke all previous fundraising records this year! During our 105th Kiwanis Anniversary year, we raised $105,036.16!!! We can't wait to put those funds back into our community and can't wait to see yall next year on Saturday, March 20th! ...
