Kiwanis Club of Polk City Awards Three Scholarships

On May 17, 2020, several members of the Kiwanis Club of Polk City presented three well deserving North Polk High School seniors $1,000 scholarships towards their first year of college costs coming up this fall. The scholarships were presented in the students' driveways with their families present, so all could honor the students' great work throughout their high school years. It was such a pleasure for the Kiwanis Club members to be a part of helping these hardworking students.

We also wish to thank the many community members who participate in our fundraisers each year, helping us raise the funds available to be directed back to the community, focusing on assistance to children and families!

Thank you!
