Blog: Why Give Back All Year? - Valparaiso Sunrise Kiwanis

During the holidays, we remember those without the warmth of a home, shiny gifts around a tree, and delicious family meals. Sure, it is easy to remember to give our hearts to the needy during the holidays. However, children in our community are in need year-round.

We love stories like this. A moment can change forever when you become a Kiwanis member!

Fewer than 10 years ago, Art Riley couldn’t have guessed that this moment would come. The presidency of Kiwanis International? He had never even anticipated running for a spot on the Board of Trustees.

"Norine Colby’s Chicago family received help from Kiwanis when she was a child, thanks to a club that provided children in need with shoes, toys, and holiday activities. Those gifts put her on a path to success, something she has never forgotten." #KidsNeedKiwanis

In response to COVID 19, Montessori School of Lemont is using Zoom and Google Meet to teach 125 students, age 3 through eighth grade, who remain at home. Working from their classrooms, teachers maintain their same schedules.

Creative ways to welcome new members is always a great idea to make people feel like family!

The best Kiwanis clubs consistently add new members. After all, fresh energy and novel ideas are the lifeblood of successful service. That’s why attracting people to Kiwanis is one of the primary responsibilities for clubs — and a hallmark of those that last.
