Who We Are and What Do We Do
The Monument Hill Kiwanis Club, a chapter of Kiwanis International, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with over 100 volunteers: Making a Positive Difference for Youth and Our Community in the Tri-Lakes area and northern El Paso County, Colorado.
Making a Difference - In Our Schools
Our Signature Project is our Service Leadership Program in the Lewis-Palmer D-38 School District, which provides student-led service clubs at all levels: K-Kids (grades 4-6), Builder's Club (middle school), Key Clubs (high school), and Circle-K at UCCS. These clubs provide students with experience in leadership and service to the community through projects to benefit others.
Making a Difference - Fundraising
Through our granting arm, the Monument Hill Foundation, we donate over $50,000 per year to local nonprofits in the El Paso County area. Fundraising activities include a Peach Sale in July and a Craft Fair in December. We also raise funds for partner organizations with our Empty Bowl Dinner and Silent Auction for Tri-Lakes Cares in October and with Bell Ringing for The Salvation Army in November & December.
Making a Difference - Service
Our July 4th Parade is dubbed the "biggest small-town parade in America." Over 80 entries thrill 20,000+ spectators during the celebration which includes the Monument Street Fair sponsored by the Tri-Lakes Chamber of Commerce.
Other Service projects include Harvest of Love, collecting literally tons of food, donated through District 38 schools, for Tri-Lakes Cares holiday distribution. Club members also volunteer with several local programs including the Rocky Mountain Youth Leadership Foundation, the Children's Literacy Center, and DECA.
