WHAT WE DO

Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time.

Kiwanis Club of Friday Harbor serves the San Juan Islands here in beautiful Washington State. If you live here in the Islands, you may have enjoyed the Pig War Picnic we sponsor every 4th of July! Great food, great music and fun had by young and old.

FUNDRAISING

The Kiwanis Club puts more than $25,000 a year back into the local economy through our toy drive, the scholarships we give annually and the many local events we participate in that support Island Rec, other local organizations and our local children.

Kiwanis is an organization of volunteers dedicated to changing lives.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT

Kiwanis helps out the community through donations. The Family Resource Center received a check in the amount of $5,000 from the Kiwanis Club of Friday Harbor for their work in the community. The Family Resource Center is the clearing house for San Juan Island and provides many services for children on the island. This was the largest single donation made by the local service club and they were pleased to be able to donate a sizable amount to such a worthy organization

SCHOLARSHIPS

Since 2015, Kiwanis of Friday Harbor has given 204 Scholarships totaling $194,700.00! We were very pleased to give $25,500 this year to 20 graduating seniors who will use the scholarships to attend colleges or trade schools all around the country.

With a senior class of 45 students, Kiwanis was able to award most of them with a scholarship to continue education at a college or a trade school. Past president Sharon Hooper stated, “I can think of no better gift than helping young people to continue their education. With a good education, all kinds of doors can be opened that will have profound effect upon their lives. Every little bit helps when you head off to college for the first time. The local Kiwanis Club feels fortunate to be able to play a small part in helping 15 local students start the next big phase of their lives.
