Founder’s Day

Since established on November 4 in 1965, the Cal-Nev-Ha Children’s Fund has invited clubs to annually participate in the Founder’s Day program in honor of our anniversary. Read an appeal from the President.

When you participate with a Founder’s Day gift that is substantial to your club, you …

  • provide scholarships and leadership training to our Service Leadership Program members, making the dream of college possible and providing our future leaders with the tools and skill set necessary to thrive in today’s world;
  • grant funding to Kiwanis clubs that enable them to develop signature projects that serve, protect, and transform children’s lives; and
  • ensure children and their families receive the necessary education and resources to prevent trauma.

“[Your] generosity has helped me to continue pursuing my education at UC Berkeley and has helped my parents to relieve some of the financial burden that they are carrying so that I can get a good education. I’m very grateful and thankful for this opportunity at receiving this award.”

-Minh Phan

Founder’s Day gifts can be mailed to the Cal-Nev-Ha Children’s Fund office or brought to our booth at our annual conventions and conferences. Contributions of $150 or more to the Founder’s Day program are recognized with a banner patch from the Cal-Nev-Ha Children’s Fund.
