This project provides blankets for the Randy Sams Shelter, the Salvation Army and other organizations.

Shoes for Orphanage Children

Our shoe fund provides a pair of shoes for each child at the Texarkana Baptist Orphanage.

Orphanage Christmas Party

Each year we sponsor a Christmas party for the children at Texarkana Baptist Orphanage.

Easter Sunrise Service

This Kiwanis-sponsored event is held each year at Camp Preston Hunt.  Kiwanian Decker Barnette organizes a beautiful and inspiring service for which he guarantees NO RAIN.

Kiwanians spend an hour each week reading to children at AHEC/SW.

The Dr. Tom & Bess Wilbanks Scholarship Endowment Fund

The Kiwanis Club of Texarkana founded this scholarship program for students of Texarkana College in 1981.

Fundraising Activities:

Annual Pancake Day

Our Annual Pancake Day is held each spring in the Truman Arnold center at Texarkana College. This is our biggest fund-raiser of the year, so we need everyone's participation to ensure the success of our service projects.

Happy Dollars

Your Happy Dollars buy shoes for the children at the Baptist Orphanage.

Blanket Money

Your dollars support the purchase of blankets for the Salvation Army, Randy Sams and Domestic Violence.

Coloring Books

Sales of coloring books support Reach Out and Read and other Kiwanis Club projects. These over-sized books make great presents for your grandchildren and other children on your gift list! Pick yours up now at Wisdom Animal Clinic or contact President Tanya.
