New York Kiwanis: In addition to the Governor’s Project and District Project, numerous other groups are endorsed for Key Clubs in New York by Kiwanis.. The New York District of Kiwanis runs three charities: Pediatric Lyme Disease Foundation, Kamp Kiwanis, and Pediatric Trauma Center. ● Unfortunately, Kamp Kiwanis is not holding sessions this summer due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, but you can still help the organization prepare for the 2020-2021 summer to make it extra special for those who missed out on camp this year. ● Insurance does not generally cover Lyme Disease, so the Pediatric Lyme Disease Foundation was created to help families pay for the treatment of children with it. ● Kiwanis also sponsors multiple trauma centers to help provide medical care for children throughout New York State.
These are all amazing organizations for your club to help. Some ideas to help support t hese charities are holding fundraisers, raising awareness of their cause, v olunteering at their events, or anything else you can think of.
