We invest in our counties future by investing in our children. We build literacy, social and safety skills with programs shown to be effective: Programs such as our signature Camp Kiwanis Summer Camp which just celebrated 75 years of continuous operation with one pandemic exception. Our Reach Out and Read program which, in cooperation with pediatricians, places books in the hands of parents to read to very young children. Our safety program – teaching children to swim, Our program to improve classroom grades (BUGS – Bring Up Grades) our good citizenship program called Terrrific Kids and our wonderful leadership and service training program KEY CLUB which is Kiwanis for High School students.
Kiwanis Club of Ocala’s annual Sportsman’s Dinner is the sole fundraiser for all of our projects. Your contribution goes to the Kiwanis Club projects listed above plus hygiene Kits for homeless students which we assemble and distribute to the local school system one evening each month.
