In their mission to serving the children of the world, the club gave away over $14,000 in scholarships in 2016, and plans on meeting or surpassing that number in 2017. Each scholarship will be no less than $500 and could be as high as $2,000. Scholarships will be based on academic achievement, essay content and writing ability, and extracurricular and community involvement.
Funds for the scholarship program are raised through BBQ on the River, the annual Kiwanis Christmas Charity Auction, and other BBQ cooks through the year.
