Editor’s Note: The following was provided by Whitewater Kiwanis Breakfast Club.

The Whitewater Kiwanis Breakfast Club recently donated $1,400 to the Family Partnership program at the Whitewater Aquatic and Fitness Center. The Family Partnership offers reduced membership rates for low-income families and individuals. 

Lorelei Brown of the Whitewater Aquatic and Fitness Center; Eric Boettcher, City of Whitewater; Patrick Taylor, President of Whitewater Kiwanis Breakfast Club; and Nicolle LaHaie, of both Kiwanis and the Fitness Center.

Patrick Taylor, President of the Whitewater Kiwanis Breakfast Club, said, “Kiwanis is very happy to contribute to help ensure that low-income families have access to the center.  Wellness is so important, and a membership at the Whitewater Aquatic and Fitness Center will help people achieve their personal wellness goals.”

Whitewater Kiwanis is a group of dedicated volunteers who help both children of the Whitewater community and the world. Over the past five years the club raised funds to make possible the recent installation of the city’s first piece of inclusive playground equipment, a We-Go-Round, in Starin Park.  Annual donations are also made to provide shoes and winter clothes for students, as well as support for organizations such as the Whitewater Food Pantry, Bethel House, The Community Space, and the Whitewater Youth Soccer Club.

If you have an interest in helping youth in Whitewater, you can check out Whitewater Kiwanis on Facebook and join our Club by contacting Patrick Taylor at Petaylor.law@gmail.com.

Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time.
