What We Do

Our Projects

Our club participates in a variety of projects throughout the year that involve fundraising, 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 a number of social activities to share experiences, talents and our collective interests. All represent great opportunities for service, friendships and personal growth.

In partnership with the Kiwanis Club, middle and high school students learn how to stand for what is right though service and volunteerism making a positive impact on their school and community. 

Our sponsored youth groups independently initiate service projects and community service activities throughout the school year.
