The Impact of Kiwanis

We received this amazing note from Susan Nations at Wilkinson Elementary:

"I wanted to share a “shout out” that one student sent to another this morning on our WES morning news show. In case it’s hard to read: “To Parker from Braiden: You’re my best friend. I know when I’m sad you always come cheer me up. When I’m on the Buddy Bench you come and ask, ‘do you want to come play?’ That’s why I want to be your best friend.”

Supporting Sarasota Teachers All Year Long

Sarasota teachers spend hundreds of dollars of their own money to decorate their classrooms and buy supplies for their students. The Siesta Key Kiwanis Club sponsors several classrooms each year but there is always more that need help. If you want to support Sarasota teachers any time of the year, check out the Adopt a Sarasota County Facebook Group, where Sarasota teachers post their needs to support their students.
