Our Kiwanis club raises funds for Key Club college scholarships every year. Seniors who have been active in one of our four High School Key Clubs are invited to apply.

Our Kiwanis club supports Key Club student organizations at Lincoln, Stadium, Mt. Tahoma and Silas High Schools in Tacoma. Kiwanians assist Key Club advisors in each of these four schools. Students perform service projects, elect officers to lead Key Club meetings, and learn valuable leadership skills.

Kiwanis Builders Club Sponsor

At the Middle School level, Tacoma Kiwanis Club sponsors two Builders Clubs, at Stewart and Gray Middle Schools. We work with a faculty advisor at each school to support and encourage these kids, so they feel empowered to do great things in their communities.

Emergency Food Network and Tacoma Rescue Mission

Tacoma Kiwanis performs monthly volunteer projects at Emergency Food Network, re-packaging bulk foods into family-sized portions. We built a playground at the Tacoma Rescue Mission’s Adams Street Family Shelter and sponsor special events for the families every year.

Weekly Programs

Every Tuesday at our luncheon meetings, members and guests enjoy timely, informative and inspirational presentations from local community leaders and organizations, as well as good food, fun and fellowship.

Kiwanis Club of Tacoma Foundation

Our Children’s Fund, a 501(c)3 charitable foundation, makes numerous grants each year to support worthwhile programs and projects for the well-being of boys and girls in Tacoma.
