Service Projects & Events

Kiwanis Service Leadership Programs are leadership and character-building programs hosted in a school and sponsored by a local Kiwanis Club.  Service Leadership Programs show students the importance of service while allowing them to grow in leadership and service to others.  Since Kiwanis started Key Club in 1925, millions of students have been inspired to lead lives of service and significance through programs for all ages.

GRAK is the proud sponsor the Judson Early College Academy (JECA) Key Club, Samuel Clemens Key Club and Dobie Middle School Builder's Club.  

Through The Eliminate Project, Kiwanis International and UNICEF have joined forces to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus—a deadly disease that steals the lives of 34,000 innocent babies and a significant number of women each year.

With only $1.80 you can save a mother and her child. 

Founded in 1966, Reading Is Fundamental (RFI) is the leading voice for children’s literacy. RFI is committed to a literate America by inspiring a passion for reading among all children, providing quality content to make an impact and engaging communities in the solution to give every child the fundamentals for success. As the nation’s largest children’s literacy non-profit, Reading Is Fundamental maximizes every contribution to ensure all children have the ability to read and succeed.

Every year, GRAK donates and distributes thousands of new books to local elementary schools to promote and enable reading for children of all ages and backgrounds. 

The Texas Ramp Project builds freedom for the homebound by building and providing ramps free of cost for disabled and elderly locals who are unable to leave their homes. In just a few hours, we are able to give them freedom to leave their home again—the home where they want to remain but whose steps have imprisoned them. 

Each Christmas, GRAK joins with the Randolph Area Christian Assistance Program (RACAP) to provide food and gifts to local families in need. In a shopping trip at a local store, children are given money to purchase gifts for themselves and their families during the holiday season. Additionally, families are provided groceries to cook holiday meals.  

GRAK provides 'snack packs' to local elementary schools to ensure kids never go hungry.  

Since 1984, GRAK's largest fundraiser of the year is the Annual Pancake Breakfast. Hosted the same Saturday as the Universal City Veteran's Day Parade, Kiwanians, Key Clubbers, and Builder's Club members join together to serve pancakes to the local area.  

GRAK members "Fly the Flags" on federal holidays in the surrounding area by partnering with local businesses. Companies sign yearly contracts to have Kiwanians put out the American flag at their business on related holidays.

God Bless America! 

The Greater Randolph Area Kiwanis (GRAK) provides annual scholarships to graduating Key Club seniors. In recognition of thier service, leadership, and academics, GRAK is proud to support the furthering education of students in their sponsored Key Clubs.
