Kiwanis
continues Empowering Support
Empowering presentations offered to the community
GREENVILLE – Kiwanis of Greenville recently continued their support of
Empowering Darke County Youth with a donation for the organization’s
After School and Summer Tutoring Programs. Kiwanis and Kiwanis members
have supported Empowering since its inception in March 2016.
Empowering Program Coordinator Bob Robinson, along with two Edison
State tutoring students, Morgan Sparks and Ashley Karns, recently made
a presentation to Kiwanis about the success of the After School and
Summer Tutoring programs. In an effort to reach out to the community,
Ashley Rutherford joined Robinson in a presentation to Greenville
Rotary, and Edison State students Micah Light and long time tutor Jim
Kildow will be on WTGR Tiger Radio’s Community Ties program on April 3.
Any organization or business considering support for Empowering Darke
County Youth, and would like additional information about the program’s
successes and needs, may contact Robinson or Melissa Eve, Assistant
Program Coordinator, at empoweringdarkecountyouth@gmail.com or leave a
message at Edison State Community College, Darke County Campus,
937-548-5546. They will be happy to provide information or set up a
presentation on request.
Kiwanis is active in the community with its sponsorship of the
Greenville High School Key Club, a teen service organization, and the
Aktion Club, a service organization for the Developmentally Disabled.
The volunteer service organization also provides newborn car seats for
free distribution by Wayne HealthCare, college scholarships and a
variety of other programs. Membership is open to the public and it
meets each Wednesday at noon at the Chestnut Village Center, Brethren
Retirement Community.
