KIWANIS CARES PACKAGES
The Division 24 Kiwanis Clubs of the suburban Cleveland area participated in a service project on Saturday, May 6, 2017, at the Brecksville Human Services Building. These clubs include: Berea, Brecksville, Brooklyn, Brunswick, Garfield Heights, Independence, Middleburg Heights,Nordonia, North Royalton, Parma, and Strongsville.
Kevin Brusk, a Brecksville Kiwanian and Division 24 Lieutenant Governor, has led the Division in a Kiwanis Cares Package service project. The clubs created 100+ clothing gift boxes with special notes for teens and women who are victims of violence. These will then be presented to representatives of Cleveland MetroHealth at a later date.
This is a very heart rendering project which came to the attention of Kiwanis last year when an Eagle Scout candidate, Ethan VonDuhn, approached the Brecksville Kiwanis Club to help support this project. Ethan explained the project, a representative from MetroHealth later was invited to speak to the Brecksville Kiwanis Club. She explained the circumstances for women in our areas and also related some of the issues that must be addressed to prepare for an event such as the Republican Convention.
The area Kiwanis Clubs raised funds and received outstanding deals from major retail outlets. Key Clubs from the same areas created packages also. Helpers to assemble the boxes came from Kiwanis members, high school National Honor Society members, Key Club members, and Friends of Kiwanis.

2017 Easter Egg Hunt Enjoyed by Many
On Saturday, April 15, 2017; children, parents, and grandparents shared this annual tradition by hunting for eggs and pictures with the Easter Bunny. The crowd was estimated at 1,000. They also partook of cookies, donuts, coffee and juice.
Children hunted for eggs in four age groups: 0 – 3, 4 – 6, 7 – 9, and 10 – 12. Those lucky enough to garner special eggs took home candy filled Easter baskets. There were 3 lucky participants in each age group. Kiwanis members and friends filled 3,000 eggs for the event and intend to do more next year, as suggestions were offered from families.
Our new location on the Brecksville-Broadview Heights School athletic grounds received positive feedback from several adults. We hope to make this an annual location as parking was plentiful. All attendees are thanked for your cooperation and safe driving in entering and exiting the grounds.
Special thanks to our corporate sponsors: MetroHealth and Unique Home Solutions. Thanks also go out to our members, friends, Key Club members, and Tri-C Circle K members for helping the event run smoothly.
