The Kiwanis Club of Los Gatos is hosting an open house for the first time in nearly seven years, inviting potential new members to discover their initiatives. Since the pandemic, membership has surged from 30 to over 80, reflecting an increasing community engagement. The club aims to support children locally through events and scholarships despite misconceptions about the need for assistance in affluent areas. Highlighted initiatives include the Special Games for children with disabilities and the Los Gatos Art and Wine Festival, fundraising efforts that facilitate their community outreach and projects.
Since 2019, the club has nearly tripled in size, growing from 30 to over 80 members, underscoring the community's strong support for its initiatives.
Pearson emphasized that while the club doesn't need new members urgently, expanding membership strengthens the organization and enhances its community support.
The Kiwanis Club's commitment to children is exemplified through its Turnaround Scholarships, which are aimed at high school students overcoming significant challenges.
The club hosts events like the Special Games for children with disabilities and the Los Gatos Art and Wine Festival, with funds supporting community initiatives.
