			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://174.120.138.5/~towncent/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/CollectionforKids.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-46" title="Kiwanis Hands On" src="http://174.120.138.5/~towncent/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/CollectionforKids-300x256.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="256" /></a>Kiwanis Club of Town Center focuses on supporting local charities, especially those which involve the children in our community. Some of our hands on projects have included helping with events, working on grounds, and gathering supplies and clothing. We purchase clothing to donate to the For Kids program so that homeless children have clothes appropriate for the season. Every year, we assist with Clasp Bingo at Bow Creek Recreation Center and the Special Olympics games in Virginia Beach.</p>
<p>Hope Havens Christmas party is one of our most cherished events where we join the residents for a meal and come prepared to give out gifts which the children and seniors have requested. Bean bags for every child turned out to be a big hit last Christmas! These are just a few that give us a different kind of experience than our fundraising events we do to support charities.</p>
<p>Currently, we sponsor the Salem High School Key Club and a scholarship program which has been organized and funded for years by our Club. The Scholarship committee reviews the applications and then interviews the finalists. We are always amazed at the intelligence and wonderful personalities of high school seniors in our community competing for the Kiwanis Scholarships.</p>

<p>When you sign on as a Kiwanis member of Town Center, Virginia Beach, you also become a member of Kiwanis International. We are dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community at a time. There are 150,000 service projects sponsored each year by Kiwanis Clubs. These are local but also we support worldwide efforts</p>
<p><strong>Kiwanis’ current global campaign for children, </strong><a href="http://www.theeliminateproject.org/"><strong>The Eliminate Project: Kiwanis eliminating maternal/neonatal tetanus</strong></a><strong>, (</strong><a href="http://www.theeliminateproject.org/"><strong>www.TheEliminateProject.org</strong></a><strong>) aims to raise US$110 million and save the lives of 129 million mothers and their future babies. In partnership with UNICEF, Kiwanis is committing by 2015 to <a href="http://174.120.138.5/~towncent/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Joe-the-Cup-with-Runners.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-123 alignleft" title="Joe the Cup with Runners" src="http://174.120.138.5/~towncent/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Joe-the-Cup-with-Runners-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>eliminating maternal/neonatal tetanus, a disease that kills one baby every nine minutes. By targeting this disease, Kiwanis will not only save lives but also pave the way for other interventions that will boost maternal health and child survival among the poorest, most underserved women and children in the world.

Yes, and we always pick the restaurants that support our Taste of Town Center 5k in November. Let’s see…this month look out because we hit California Pizza, but other recent months you may have seen us at Keagan’s, Forbidden City, or Bravo. We believe in supporting the restaurants which support us. And then there is Freemason Abby who provide a dinner for the winning team of Kiwanians who bring the most potential new members to our State of Town Center!  We hope you will check us out soon as we really like to eat out…spouses and kids too!</p>
