Kiwanis de Amigos has been serving the children of the greater Tucson Community for 28 years. We have been doing so with the generous support of members, local residents, and businesses. There are two ways to contribute:
Some of our major events and activities include:
1. Kiwanis de Amigos Relays Track Meet for Middle Schools at Drachman Track and Field Stadium, University of Arizona
-Since 2001 with over 1,000 area families
2. Rattlesnake Run Cross Country Meet at Columbus Park
-Since 2002 with over 500 families
3. Train youth to be leaders through Kiwanis clubs at elementary (K-Kids), high school (Key Clubs), and university (Circle K—as faculty advisor) levels.
4. Holiday shopping spree for underprivileged children and their families where we purchase presents selected by them for their family members.
