Serving The Community

Our members participate in various volunteer activities to embody the Kiwanis mission, which is to make the world a better place for children, one child and one community at a time. Some of these include:

  • Soup Kitchen – members volunteer to assemble and serve lunches to Food Pantry Guests.
  • Trunk or Treat – A Fall Festival for area foster children and their foster families, offering a free dinner, trick-or-treating, inflatables, and other games.
  • Wonderland Toy Store – an exceptional shopping experience for families unable to afford Christmas gifts for their children.
  • Collaborate with the Berrien Community Foundation to provide Christmas boxes filled with essential items for seniors.
  • St. Joseph Fall Festival (on the bluff).  We provide small pumpkins for kids to decorate with stickers and offer a pumpkin bag toss game with prizes.
  • Salvation Army Bell Ringing during the holiday season.
  • Provide monetary donations to local student-focused groups such as the Blossomland Learning Center School Store, the Lakeshore High School Band/Choir Program, and the St. Joseph High School Orchestra/Choir Program.
