Kiwanis Club of Aurora / American Cancer Society

The past year and its shutdowns and other unforeseen problems have made it difficult for clubs such as ours to raise funds in the traditional manner. YOUR help in supporting our auction will allow us to continue the level of funding programs, projects, scholarships, and other worthwhile organizations in our area.
In 2019, a good friend of two of our members passed away. They were the grateful recipients of many of her beloved Longaberger baskets. As a way to memorialize her, we will also be contributing funds from this auction to the American Cancer Society in memory of Kathleen Rees.

Kiwanis is part of a global organizations of volunteers dedicated to improving the lives of children within their communities and throughout the world. The Kiwanis Club of Aurora was organized in 1916, the 21st club chartered in the world. The Club is responsive to worthwhile community projects that help make Aurora an excellent community in which to live, work, and play. We have partnered with the area food pantries, with the Aurora Public Library, as well as other organizations within our community. The Club sponsors Kiwanis-affiliated youth service clubs at local schools and Aurora University. Each year, our Club also awards college scholarships to area students.
