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. |

We’re excited to bring another great day of fun, learning, and community connection to kids and families throughout the Fox Cities.

Kidz Expo Committee MeetingsAll meetings begin at 8:15 a.m.

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. |

Join us for story time at the Long Cheng Marketplace (1804 S Lawe St, Appleton) for our Halloween Kiwanis n' Cops n' Kids program. 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. |

When you think of Christmas and The Salvation Army, images of a red kettle and bell ringers probably form in your mind. Volunteers and donors make Christmas at The Salvation Army happen. Over the years, the Salvation Army has been fortunate to have the loyalty of many who return year after year to help by volunteering their time in a shift or two of bell ringing. Once again our club will have designated bell ringing times. The Thursday evening shifts will be on December 3rd and the Saturday morning shifts on December 5th. I know many Kiwanis members enjoy ringing with another Kiwanis member, or a family member. Kids especially seem to enjoy helping out, and what better way than to introduce them to “service” than by having them help you for an hour or two. Two items to remember: Uncovered sites result in fewer donations to the Salvation Army, and consequently, fewer needy people helped! Here are the locations we have currently reserved. Bell ringing is a unique way to experience the spirit of the season and to helping others at Christmas through the work of The Salvation Army. Hope that you can join us. |
