Little Kiwanis Food Library Stocking Support
Jan. 22, 2026 - Dec. 31, 2026

The Appleton Fox Cities Kiwanis Club has installed a Little Kiwanis Food Library at First English Lutheran Church (326 E North St, Appleton).  Our club has committed to checking it on Thursdays and Fridays each week and make sure it is full (the church is taking care of all the other days).  We would get the food from the church's supply.  

The church office is open 9:00am - 4:00pm Monday-Thursday and 9:00am - 12:00pm on Friday.

Missions of Honor Flight Welcome Home
Oct. 27, 2026 6:20 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.

The Appleton Fox Cities Kiwanis is proud to continue to partner with the Missions of Honor Flight program as they send our veterans to Washington DC and get the homecoming they all deserve.  Come and support the welcome home by being part of our crowd control crew.  

Volunteers should arrive at the Appleton International Airport approximately 06:30 PM as the flight is scheduled to return at 8:20PM.  Kiwanians will be lining up directly after the military line. We will meet inside the terminal before the security check point.

Kiwanis

  • Please wear your vest.
  • Line up in the parade line and keep everyone, even kids, behind the ropes.
  • ATW will inform Kiwanis if non-HF flight arrives since they may need assistance with crowd at the arrival gate. Kiwanis can help navigate folks out of the gate to exit.
  • Keep all visitors behind the ropes.
  • Kiwanis please be sure to spread out the length of the parade route.
  • The bottleneck- keep watch for families trying to get ahead of vet line. Let’s keep watch on this as we may need to add another rope/extend it to the door for a future mission. 
  • No more than 2 people need to manage the curtain for Welcome Home at the gate; Missions of Honor has their folks there to help if needed. With so little room, we are limiting the number of people in that spot.
  • Severin, the band leader, can make announcements if needed.
  • Missions of Honor tell(s) the Guardians to keep moving at a slow pace; we don’t want to rush the veterans. If you see a vet/guard stop, gently remind them to keep moving and position yourself so folks can get around you to keep the line moving.
  • Dave Mix, Commander of Post 2126, will have approximately 5 Post Members lead the parade and bring up the rear so you’ll know where the last veteran is.

The Kiwanis 'n Cops 'n Kids Program is dedicated to promoting children's literacy while strengthening positive relationships between law enforcement and the communities they serve. Through partnerships with local police officers, Kiwanis members, schools, and community organizations, the program provides free books to children and families, encouraging a lifelong love of reading and learning.

By putting books directly into the hands and homes of kids, the program helps improve literacy outcomes and ensures that more children have access to reading materials. At the same time, it creates meaningful opportunities for law enforcement officers to engage with children and families in a positive, supportive environment, fostering trust, connection, and a stronger sense of community.

Together, the program helps build brighter futures—one book, one child, and one community relationship at a time.

Nothing warms the soul like a warm meal! If preparing food and serving is one of your strengths, then this is the perfect opportunity for you.

We need volunteers from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.  Typically, when we get there we help set up different items, then serve the food to those coming through the line.  Once they're done eating, we wipe down the tables and chairs.  It goes very quickly, and we always enjoy doing this.

The Kiwanis 'n Cops 'n Kids Program is dedicated to promoting children's literacy while strengthening positive relationships between law enforcement and the communities they serve. Through partnerships with local police officers, Kiwanis members, schools, and community organizations, the program provides free books to children and families, encouraging a lifelong love of reading and learning.

By putting books directly into the hands and homes of kids, the program helps improve literacy outcomes and ensures that more children have access to reading materials. At the same time, it creates meaningful opportunities for law enforcement officers to engage with children and families in a positive, supportive environment, fostering trust, connection, and a stronger sense of community.

Together, the program helps build brighter futures—one book, one child, and one community relationship at a time.
