Your donation to McMinnville Kiwanis helps foster a love for reading by providing first-grade students in the McMinnville School District with three free books throughout the school year. With your support, we also introduce children to the local public library and encourage them to get their own library cards. Together, we’re nurturing lifelong learners and helping to build a strong foundation for literacy in our community’s youngest readers!

Your donation dollars make a direct impact by helping us provide brand-new athletic shoes to local children in partnership with the Beyond Backpacks program. Our primary mission is to ensure that kids in our community have access to high-quality athletic shoes, which are essential for both physical activity and confidence. Thanks to your generosity, we have distributed nearly 2,000 pairs of shoes to date. Together, we are setting children up for success, one step at a time.

Your donations to McMinnville Kiwanis have made a lasting difference by providing hundreds of scholarships to local youth over the years. With your support, we’re able to help students pursue their educational dreams and unlock opportunities for their future. Every scholarship we award empowers a young person to further their education, build brighter futures, and contribute positively to our community. Together, we are investing in the success of the next generation!
