Sac Suburban’s Background and History
The Kiwanis Club of Sacramento Suburban, in Cal-Nev-Ha Division 44, is a corporation of Kiwanis International, a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world, one child and one community at a time. Founded in 1952, we are a service club encompassing Arden Arcade and East Sacramento County. The Sacramento Suburban Kiwanis Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
The Kiwanis Club of Sacramento Suburban is the corporation often referred to as Administrative. Funded through members’ semi-annual dues and Happy and Sad Bucks, Administrative includes these subcommittees: Budget & Finance; Programs; Membership and Sunshine; Social, Fellowship, House & Reception; Interclub; and Communications.
The Sacramento Suburban Kiwanis Foundation is the corporation funded through annual fundraising activities, including our Art Fiesta; Tasting, Treasures, & Tunes; and the Creelman-Francisco Golf Classic (which supports the Kiwanis Family House). The Foundation includes these subcommittees: Community Service; Youth Service; Service Leadership Program; Gail Bash Committee; and Kiwanis Family House. Service projects start in and are coordinated through the committees.
Our officers include President, President-Elect, Vice President, Past President, Treasurer, Secretary, and four directors. Our Board of Directors, meeting monthly, determine club policies and activities; approve new members; approve the annual budget and payment of club bills; counsel the club committees; and is responsible for the general management and welfare of the club.
