Volunteer Opportunities

The mission of the Northern Columbus Kiwanis Club: We are an organization dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time. In the process we also help families. We are proud to assist other vital organizations, some of which are listed below. If you are looking for ways to serve your community as a volunteer, please Contact Us. We need you. More importantly, the kids need you.

Clintonville-Beechwold Resources Center Pumpkin Patch. The Pumpkin Patch features apple cider, food, games, pumpkin painting, a bake sale, and more. Donate three cans of food and get a free pumpkin. To support and help the CRC raise funds, our members grill hot dogs and brats. Everyone has a great time at this event.
