2017 ANNUAL REPORT

Serving the Children of the World

As a Foundation, we exist to build a better community by supporting Indianapolis youth. We do this by giving our time, our skills, our hearts and our financial resources.

Kiwanis Club Mission

With more than 175 community leaders as members, the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis is one of the world’s largest clubs and is dedicated to building friendships, developing leadership skills, making business contacts and, most importantly, serving the most precious asset of Indianapolis and the world — our children.

The Foundation follows Kiwanis International’s objectives, which have remained unswerving: T o give primacy to the human and spiritual, rather than to the material, values of life. T o encourage the daily living of the Golden Rule in all human relationships. T o promote the adoption and the application of higher social, business and professional standards. T o develop, by precept and example, a more intelligent, aggressive and serviceable citizenship. T o provide, through Kiwanis clubs, a practical means to form enduring friendships, to render altruistic service and to build better communities. T o cooperate in creating and maintaining sound public opinion and high idealism to promote righteousness, justice, patriotism and goodwill.

What is the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis?

We are about 175 local members from the business, government, healthcare, education and nonprofit sectors, as well as many others. Many are leaders who’ve shaped our city and state. We gather regularly for networking and fun and to discuss civic needs and program development. Our friendships often last a lifetime. Our separate Kiwanis Foundation of Indianapolis, Inc. is a tax-deductible, non-profit organization that raises and awards funds. Kiwanis means “we make noise.” This Native American term reflects the enthusiasm that we bring to serving youth. As one of the oldest and largest of over 8,000 Kiwanis clubs globally, we have been making noise for a long time.

Why Kiwanis?

For over 100 years, we’ve worked to develop and educate Indianapolis’ youth because we believe that from strong youth grows a strong community. Through our Foundation, we’ve raised and rewarded hundreds of thousands of dollars for community and school projects and scholarships. Additionally, our club members serve by mentoring students, advising youth groups and providing community services.

How are Our Club’s Programs Funded?

Foundation funding for these programs comes from tax-deductible gifts, bequests, memorials, special events and contributions by club members and supporters, as well as sponsorships, grants, interest and dividends. The club’s committees, chaired by volunteer members, focus on community-service initiatives, service leadership programs, membership growth and club operations. Financial gifts are made through the Kiwanis Foundation of Indianapolis, Inc., which was established in 1949 as a 501(c)(3) organization legally charged with raising and appropriating project funding and monitoring investments of funds provided for programs. The Foundation’s Board of Directors meets every other month to review finances and investments, approve funding requests and monitor fundraising efforts.

What are Our Programs?

Our Foundation supports many nonprofit organizations through financial gifts, while our club supports through volunteerism. More than $1 million has been granted through our Foundation to worthy programs and efforts in Central Indiana. Our programs include community grants, scholarships, service projects and service leadership programs.

Scholarship Programs The Abe Lincoln Scholarship Awards Program provides college scholarships for graduating high school students who have overcome tremendous obstacles in their lives. Each year, four students are selected through an interview process to receive scholarships totaling $46,250. Over the years, more than 740 Indianapolis students have been recognized, and we’ve awarded more than $994,900 in scholarships. Kiwanis Student-Athlete Scholarships are given to top Marion County boys’ high school basketball and football players at annual recognition luncheons. Supported by the Indiana Pacers, the Indianapolis Colts and backed by the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA), the scholarship programs give $7,500 annually in financial aid to student-athletes who most embody Kiwanis’ leadership and service values.

Alia Martin, 2017 Female Athlete Award Recipient

Jackie Salmon, Marion County High School Female Athlete Award Committee Chair

Kiwanis Marion County High School Female Athlete Award and a $3,500 scholarship is presented at the Indiana Sports Awards in conjunction with the IndyStar. Our objective with this award is to bring greater public awareness to a high school female athlete in Marion County who demonstrates leadership, discipline and caring for others, in her team, school and community. This athlete may or may not be the top athlete on the team but is a role model for teammates and other students. Our objective with this award is to bring greater public awareness to a female athlete in Marion County who demonstrates leadership, discipline and caring for others, in her team, school and community. We believe it is important to showcase our future female leaders to inspire other athletes to pursue excellence.

___________________________________________________________ “I love that as Kiwanians we do things like partner with the IndyStar Sports Awards to provide the Marion County High School Female Athlete Award with a scholarship, which allows us to reward and call attention to a young lady who, like all Kiwanians, gives back to her community and world.” Jackie Salmon, Marion County High School Female Athlete Award Committee Chair ___________________________________________________________ 6

Lawrence E. and Maysel D. East Scholarships are given annually to students who attend Butler University or the University of Indianapolis. Nearly $500,000 has been awarded through this program. Scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate academic excellence, leadership, citizenship and financial need. The Kiwanis Improvement Program of Southport High School (KIPS) annually recognizes two Southport seniors who’ve demonstrated grade improvement and excellent attendance over several years. Our Foundation funds the program, assisted by Kiwanian Thomas Dunham.

Service Projects and Member Activities Riley Hospital for Children benefits from our club members who staff and support two Magic Castle Carts of toys that provide “Smile Therapy” for young patients and their caregivers. We helped establish Riley’s trauma center in the 1920s and have raised money for the hospital and its foundation over the subsequent 90 years. Partners in Education at Harshman Middle School works directly with the principal, faculty and students at Harshman Middle School, IPS #101, to provide incentives for better attendance and academic performance at the school. This includes planning a celebration for approximately 150 students to recognize them for making good choices, bringing up grades or maintaining good ones and being a positive influence on fellow classmates. 7

___________________________________________________________ “Harshman staff and students are so grateful for the partnership with Kiwanis! Field trips, student appreciation and so much more has been made possible because of the amazing support from Kiwanis to Harshman.” Lorraine Sumner, Harshman Middle School Teacher ___________________________________________________________ Fostering Families Program supports parents who take abandoned, abused or neglected children into their homes. Exemplary foster parents selected by local childrens’ agencies are honored at our annual Fostering Families luncheon, where they share their stories. Our club presents them with Faith, Hope and Love awards, as well as local memberships, sporting event passes, household items, gift cards, encouraging books, coupons, toys and much more. The committee uses any leftover funds to provide assistance to families in need over the Christmas holidays. IPS Charity Dye Center for Inquiry III is part of Kiwanis International’s ongoing Young Children Priority One focus on helping children under age five. Our club members work with preschool and kindergarten teachers, contributing financial resources for each classroom’s materials.

Salvation Army Bell-Ringing enlists club members to ring bells at Salvation Army Christmas kettles at various locations in downtown Indianapolis throughout the holiday season.

___________________________________________________________ “The Downtown Indianapolis Kiwanis and Downtown Indianapolis Rotary have had a good-natured competition for many years to see who can raise the most money for the Salvation Army, ringing the bell at the Red Kettles at holiday time. Regardless of the outcome between Kiwanis and Rotary, we all win when we reach out to help families in our community through the Salvation Army.” Karen Burns, Bell Ringing Committee Co-Chair ___________________________________________________________ Kiwanis vs. Rotary Softball chairs organize practices and sell tickets to the annual softball game held at Victory Field. Money raised benefits the work of our Foundation.

Adaptive Bike Recipient

2017 Annual Golf Outing

The Golf Outing encourages all club members — golfers or not — to participate in raising money for our Foundation. This year’s golf outing was hosted at Coffin Golf course and we were able to raise over $15,000. Adaptive Bikes, which are specially made for qualifying children of Indianapolis, are funded by the Kiwanis Foundation of Indianapolis in conjunction with Kiwanian Tom Dunham. It’s wonderful to see how these bikes can assist the kids in playing with other children and experiencing the pleasures of riding a bike. Other community efforts include collecting pop tabs for Riley Children’s Hospital and providing toiletries and personal grooming items to the poor and homeless served by Gennesaret Free Clinic. We have been fortunate to have wonderful business and community leaders speak to our club and like to recognize each by donating to other organizations in their names. Kiwanis’ mission is to improve the world one child and one community at a time. It is an incredible feeling to know that there are others who are serving that same end.

Service Leadership Programs Our Club and Foundation provide both volunteers and financial support for seven other local Service Leadership Clubs, based in schools and elsewhere, that do their own charitable projects. By guiding them, we have a greater impact on the entire community. K-Kids Club is for fourth and fifth grade students. It is hosted by IPS Charity Dye Center for Inquiry III and sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis. Under Kiwanis Club members’ guidance, students complete “good works” projects as well as attend Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis events. We give the students the opportunity to grow as leaders and take pride in the improvements of their schools and contributing to the community at large. The elected student body hierarchy, similar to our downtown club’s structure, gives immeasurable pride and confidence to these burgeoning leaders. 10

IPS George Washington Carver Montessori School No. 87 Builders Club

Builders Club is for middle school youth. It is hosted by IPS George Washington Carver Montessori School No. 87 and is sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis. Under the guidance of Kiwanis Club members and school teachers, students support their local community while learning the magic of giving. In 2017, they collected canned food monthly to support the neighborhood Fairfax Church food pantry. They also raised money for Kiwanis Foundation’s Eliminate Project by selling Valentine’s Day Candy Grams at school. With the grant money from the Kiwanis Foundation of Indianapolis Inc., Builders Club members purchased toys for the Toys for Tots program. They also involved the entire school in making fleece blankets to give to Dayspring Center for the Homeless. Key Club is hosted by Perry Meridian High School and sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis. This past year, the PMHS Key Club has been very active with several fund-raising activities including a recent “Riley Minute” at a sporting event to raise funds for Riley Hospital. Several members also participated in trick or treat for UNICEF and collected money for March of Dimes. The Key Club is currently collecting money for the Thirst Project, which funds projects to give developing countries access to clean water. With support of the Kiwanis Foundation, Key Club members attended the Indiana District Leadership Conference and participated in the Key Leader Program. In addition, one member attended the Key Club International Convention. Some of the Key Club activities include the following: Volunteering at Gleaners and Midwest Food Banks, the Baxter YMCA, Perry Meridian and Glen Valley Elementary schools and the Indianapolis Zoo. Participated in the homecoming parade Rang the bell for the Salvation Army Provided a meal at a local firehouse in Perry Township as part of commemorating 9/11 Honored Cafeteria Workers’ Day with letters/cards of thanks to school staff Participated in the cultural fair at Douglas MacArthur Elementary School 11

Circle K Clubs at Butler University, IUPUI and the University of Indianapolis are also sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis. Under the guidance of Kiwanis members, students have completed a variety of “good works” projects.

___________________________________________________________ “Circle K is a club on Butler University’s campus, which is part of the larger Kiwanis International. This past academic year, club members volunteered at local Indianapolis facilities. Past events included serving dinner at the Ronald McDonald House, volunteering at Boulevard Food Pantry once a month, planting crops at Public Greens and helping with the CROP Walk. Aside from volunteering, our club also did creative service projects. Some activities included making superhero baby capes for Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital, making dog toys to donate to the Humane Society and making cards to send to US troops.” Brea Fisher, Butler Circle K President ___________________________________________________________ IUPUI Circle K Members

12

___________________________________________________________ “Circle K International is hosted by IUPUI Circle K and sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis. CKI is heavily involved with the city of Indianapolis and the entire state of Indiana. Through our volunteer efforts and leadership conferences, we have better prepared our students for the changing nation by involving them in the largest collegiate service organization internationally. In the 17-18 CKI year, our volunteer efforts in Indy have included Gleaners Food Bank, the Midwest Food Bank, Cat’s Haven, FIDO, The Lord’s Pantry at Anna’s House, hosting 16 Hours of Service twice, tree planting, garbage collecting and more. Our leadership outreach has included visiting the surrounding high schools to teach them about Kiwanis/CKI, hosting the Metro-Fields Divisional Rally, participating in all district conventions and by having five members serve on the Indiana CKI District Board. In 18-19, we hope to continue everything that CKI has strived for and push our club to become Indiana’s premier CKI club.” Aaron Sinclair, Indiana District CKI Treasurer ___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ “The UIndy Circle K International Club is hosted on the campus of the University of Indianapolis. Our club has been sponsored in the past by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis and the Kiwanis Club of Perry Township. Under the guidance and leadership of these clubs, the students of UIndy have been able to flourish as leaders and servants. During the 2017-2018 Circle K year, our students were able to continue with our partners in the community such as Garfield Park, Southside Animal Shelter, the Holy Family Shelter and the Monumental Marathon. Our students took their service a step further by organizing and completing a drive to collect items for women’s shelters in the city of Indianapolis.” Shannon Gaskin, UIndy Circle K President ___________________________________________________________ 13

Aktion Club Members

Aktion Club Committee Members Rob Schlegel and Tom Dunham

Aktion Club, designed for adults living with disabilities, is sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis. Participation in the Aktion Club provides members with opportunities to gain social and leadership skills and to further integrate into our community through service projects. In addition, they develop friendships with peers and Kiwanians. Aktion Club members and club volunteers meet monthly to participate in local service projects and social outings.

Community Grants

___________________________________________________________ “The Kiwanis Foundation of Indianapolis awarded nearly $160,000 in 2017 to support Club programs and community grants. Community awards were made to five agencies that serve children and youth in the city of Indianapolis for programs to improve the quality of life directly through activities promoting health, education, etc. and through programs that encourage leadership and service among youth. That is one of the many ways Kiwanis makes a positive impact on the future of Indianapolis.” Tom Ewbank, 2017 Kiwanis Foundation President ___________________________________________________________ In 2015, we were very excited to be in a financial position to revitalize our external grant program, which provides funding for organizations in our community that serve youth through creative and innovative programming. In 2017, external community grants were awarded to: Girls Inc. of Greater Indianapolis Peace Learning Social Health Association of Indiana Visually Impaired Preschool Services (VIPS) Youth Philanthropy Initiative of Indiana 14

___________________________________________________________ “Social Health Association of Indiana is grateful for the support of the Kiwanis Foundation of Indianapolis. The Kiwanis Foundation grant allows us to provide the youth of Marion County with critical social education that promotes positive and healthy relationships. The impact of the healthy relationship and teen dating violence prevention program is immediate and ensures our community’s positive future. Thank you for your commitment to the youth of Indianapolis!” Angela Bridge, Social Health Association of Indiana ___________________________________________________________

Why Support Kiwanis’ Programs?

“‘Help us make the future brighter by supporting our club’s service projects and our youth programs’ was the headline from a recent Kiwanis mailing. More than just words, our contributions of time, talents and financial resources do make a difference. Think about all of the stories of the Abe Lincoln Scholars, foster parents, Harshman Middle School students, Riley Kids Adaptive Bike recipients and all the other programs that we make possible. As one of these recipients wrote, ‘Upon the completion of another year of education in the spirit of Abe Lincoln, my motto continues to be “don’t give up.” I had a rough year emotionally and financially and became very depressed, but I pulled through. I am really looking forward to this senior year. Yippee! Thanks so much for believing in me. I couldn’t have made it without your help. Help keep the good news coming.’” Austin Greene, Kiwanis Foundation Board Member

Kids Need Kiwanis

Kiwanis supports local students who have the desire for continued education, through our scholarship programs, making an enormous difference to these kids. 15

___________________________________________________________ “I’ve thought often this year about everything the Kiwanis Club has done. Having the opportunity to experience college farther from home than I would have without the scholarship has been amazing. I’ve learned a lot this year, in and out of the classroom, and I get to continue to do so thanks to help the Kiwanis Club has given me. I remember mentioning in my essay that without financial help, I would have to choose a school other than IU. I left the Abe Lincoln Awards banquet that day and made my housing deposit because I finally had the security that I could go to my dream school. It felt rewarding to have my work recognized, and it was breathtaking to hear my story put in the words of someone on the outside. The Kiwanis Club made sure that each student in attendance that day could leave with a sense of pride in his/her accomplishments — something that can be life-changing to young adults who often feel like they can’t catch up with what life is throwing at them. Thank you again for everything. I hope to someday be able to pay forward the kindness and generosity I was lucky enough to receive from the men and women of the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis.” Megan McQuade, 2017 Abe Lincoln Scholar ___________________________________________________________
