Kiwanis assist Neighborhood House 20/20 Food Drive
Joyce Handa and Esther Medina, along with Key Club members from Lake Oswego High, volunteered at the “20/20 Food Drive” hosted by the Kiwanis Club of Southwest Hills in Portland which benefitted the Neighborhood House, a non-profit organization, located in Multnomah Village. The community was asked to donate 20 pounds of non-perishable food and/or $20 in monetary proceeds. The event was set up in conjunction with the annual Kiwanis One Day project which encourages clubs to work together to help their communities worldwide on October 24th this year. The event was organized as a Drive Through to keep donors and the Kiwanis families at a safe distance due to the Covid-19 environment. This Food Drive successfully raised $1,500 and collected 1,600 pounds of food, which included 200 pounds of pet food. Great work Kiwanians and Key Clubbers!
Engaging with the community is a great way for clubs to discover partners for impactful service projects. While nonprofit organizations are a frequent go-to, don’t forget about local businesses eager to lend a hand. One success story comes from a snack drive organized by the Colebrook Elementary Kiwanis Builders Club in Colebrook, New Hampshire, U.S., in partnership with a local flower shop. #KidsNeedKiwanis
