LAND O’ LAKES – Kiwanis Club of Land O’ Lakes launched last month, uniting passionate residents who are ready to make a difference through volunteer projects, youth programs and community partnerships.
The new club is a chapter of Kiwanis International, a global service organization dedicated to improving the lives of children. It joins a global network of nearly 500,000 Kiwanis family members who work to create positive change through hands-on service, fundraising and youth leadership programs.
The Land O’ Lakes chapter will support local schools, youth programs and community development initiatives that align with Kiwanis International’s mission of “improving the world, one child and one community at a time.”
“Our goal is to be a positive force in Land O’ Lakes,” said Jeanna Lee, vice president of the new club. “We’re a group of neighbors who care deeply about our community, and we’re excited to roll up our sleeves and serve.”
The club’s members are already planning their first service initiatives, including a Halloween costume drive and volunteering with St. Vincent de Paul Society.
The Kiwanis Club of Land O’ Lakes welcomes anyone interested in community service and leadership to join. Meetings are held on the second and fourth Thursdays at 6:30 p.m.
