Helping kids thrive!
- The Kiwanis Club of Mansfield serves the children and community of Mansfield.
- We have a strong emphasis on helping the Friendly House children by helping to purchase a bus for transportation, sponsoring their annual Christmas party and buying hats, gloves and socks for the kids.
- We have a commitment to our youth by sponsoring K Kids at Malabar, Builders Club at Madison Jr. High and Key Clubs at Mansfield Senior High School, Madison Comprehensive High School, Ontario High School and St. Peter's High School.
Our club focuses on community initiatives and children-centered projects, striving to uplift local children by fostering growth and empowerment for a brighter future.
Much of our community service is for Friendly House. We enjoy helping the kids with Christmas presents and hats, gloves and socks as well as providing camperships so kids can attend summer camp.
Bell ringing for Salvation Army is another community project we participate in.
Our main fundraiser is the Field of Love and Gratitude Field of Honor. We display flags honoring veterans, military and first responders that have been purchased and dedicated by the community.
The funds raised by this project go to support our community service and youth programs such as K Kids, Builders Club and Key Clubs. We also support two Aktion Clubs.
Annually, we provide scholarships to Miss Ohio contestants who have competed by completing essays about their platform.
Our club gathers regularly, fostering a tight-knit community while making a positive impact through our shared dedication to service and building lasting friendships.
We enjoy working together on projects and getting to know one another outside our regular meetings. One of the projects that allows us to do this is working in the grandstand and sell ing peanuts at the Richland County Fair.
