Fundraising Committee

2008/2009 Committee Chair:  Michele Campbell

 The Fundraising Committee is responsible to research, plan, organize, gain approval, and implement fundraising activities for the Club.  These fundraising activities include Service Project Fundraisers (100% of the proceeds are used to support service projects), and Administrative Fundraisers, which support the Administrative requirements which the club incurs.  Some of our fundraisers include:

Crab Feed - Annually the Crab and Spaghetti Feed is one of our largest fundraisers of the year. What better time to sit down with loved ones and chow down on all the spaghetti and Dungeness crab you can lay your eyes on. This year Crab and Spaghetti is May 2nd. See any Kiwanis Club of Kent Member for tickets.

Concession Stands - The Kiwanis Club of Kent, with the help of our wonderful sponsored youth in Key Club, partner with the Kent School District to provide concession stand services at French Field during the high school football season, as well as for several special events throughout the year.

Kent Cornucopia Days - This annual festival is held in July of each year, and the Kiwanis Club of Kent staffs a food booth which offers the BEST onion burgers in town!  Come visit us during Cornucopia Days!

Entertainment Books - Our club annually sells Entertainment! Books as a means of raising both service and administrative funds. 

Uptown Comedy in Downtown Kent - The Kiwanis Club of Kent will be hosting it's second annual "Uptown Comedy in Downtown Kent." Thanks to Susan Johnson for coming up with this fantastic idea that went over like a hit the first time. Be watching for announcements because the ticket will go fast. This fundraiser helps provide scholarships for vocational school students at Renton Technical College and other programs in our community.


Marbles/Happy & Sad Dollars - these weekly administrative fundraisers help provide a fun way to support our administrative fund, and are completely voluntary for member's participation.

Chinese Auctions - Occasionally the Club auctions off a special item, either as a means to support a specific project/activity/donation request approved by the Board of Directors, or as a general fundraiser for the Administrative fund.
