We did not win the award, but the community service work of the Killearn Kiwanis Club is something of which we are very proud. These are on-going projects in which club members participate on a year round basis. The public is invited to join these efforts individually or in their workplace. Members collect these labels to give to Gretchen Everhart School to earn computer equipment and software. Chair, Darrin Holloman.
Members collect stuffed animals from various sources for presentation to the above listed agencies.
Prime sources are garage and yard sales where sellers are advised of the opportunity to donate the items. Club members are collecting books for pre-school and day care centers. So far, about 200 have been turned in. The goal is about 350 for the year. Public paritcipation is encouraged.
