Raising money for worthwhile causes is an important part of Kiwanis. Our club distributes all funds raised back into the community in several different ways.
1) Service Leadership Programs – We support our SLPs by helping fund their initiatives and their attendance at leadership development conventions and events.
2) Materials for Service Projects – Club members enjoy hands-on service projects and we use funds to cover costs of materials used in those projects.
3) Local and Worldwide Kiwanis Initiatives – We provide donations to the Kiwanis International Foundation and Capital District Foundation to support causes such as eliminating maternal/neonatal tetanus.
4) Charitable Donations – We have been able to provide donations to various organizations that operate locally, such as the Ronald McDonald House of Northern Virginia and Our Daily Bread’s holiday sponsor-a-family program.

The Reston Holiday parade has been an event for all ages for the last 32 years. It's been mentioned as a top 10 holiday parade by USA Today Travel. We've been volunteering to support for multiple years and have had our high school volunteers featured in the local paper.
This year Kiwanis Club of Tysons will be helping with parade registration and lining up units. We will also be in the parade with our polar bear!
