Kiwanis Club of Lake Tahoe

The Kiwanis Club of Lake Tahoe was busy this morning spending almost $3,000 on snowpants, beanies and gloves for our South Lake Tahoe youth!!!! Margie Maxhimer and Deb Torvik bought out Walmart, Target and Costco!!!!!!!

Members of the GWHS Key Club, masked, and social distanced! President Grace Wolski and the members are busy focusing on service projects at their school, due to the limits of COVID. They are currently doing a canned food drive as the holidays near. Thank you to both GWHS & STHS Key Clubs for the community spirit and acts of kindness you all display!

Don Borges (on the left) was chosen as the Kiwanis Club of Lake Tahoe Kiwanian of the Month for his dedication to our community and tireless efforts he delivers month in and month out. He received a portable battery representing his ability to keep people "charged up" in helping our community in a meaningful and fun way!

Kiwanis is a global organization dedicated to improving one child and one community at a time. Our coats for kids program is an example of our membership and our Circle K volunteers working together to achieve our goals. Thank you.

Getting the coats ready to distribute to the schools! Just in time, as the weather turns colder. A big shout out to American Century Championship/LTVA & Give Tahoe (El Dorado Community Foundation) for their grant support this year in our efforts to make sure that our youth who need a coat...get one!

Coats for Kids is still moving along...a huge thank you to Past President Don Borges, Larry Reilly and Velma Schnoll - the four of us rocked it today sorting coats at ABC Storage in the rain/snow/wind.......... Sierra House Elementary is "in the books"! Now, let's move on the the list of amazing kids that need coats at the next school - the work of the Kiwanis Club of Lake Tahoe is not done!!!!!!!

Coats for Kids is underway!!!! President Dave Borges, Margie Kovarik-Maxhimer and Deb Ward went shopping - and man did we shop!!!! 287 coats purchased!!!! A wonderful family was checking out at the check stand beside us and asked what we were doing - we explained how our Coats For Kids project provides 700-800 coats to needy kids in South Lake Tahoe - the dad, the mom and the little girl each reached into their pockets and handed us cash to help with the project!!!! It's so great to know there are great, compassionate people out there!!! We are not done - more shopping to come!!!!
