Kiwanis Club of Pekin
Last call for spring grant applications!! There is still time to apply! The application is open until May 21, 2026 for local grants between $100 and $1000 from the Kiwanis Club of Pekin. Grants are given for direct services and programs that benefit the children of our community, with priority consideration given to organizations who did not receive a grant in our last cycle of funding.
All grant recipients will be notified by June 4 and invited to attend our meeting on June 23 at 11:30am at the Miller Center! The link to the application is available on the Kiwanis Club of Pekin Facebook page. Every grant has an impact beyond what we can fully imagine, and the transformative work of local programs is why we exist. Kiwanis Club of Pekin was formed with the mission of serving the children of the world and we love how the fundraising we do throughout the year allows our local organizations to dream new dreams for our local kids.
We have a wide variety of ways to give back from cleaning bike trails to making dinner at the Ronald McDonald House to packing backpacks for next year’s Pekin Community High School students. More hands to help serve the kids of Pekin are always welcome! Join us for lunch any Tuesday at 11:30am at the Miller Center and learn more about the programs we support and the fun we have raising dollars to support even more.
