Kiwanis Club of San Clemente

Introducing the Kiwanis Club of San Clemente Foundation

Now donors can designate a particular cause or organization in San Clemente to benefit from a tax-deductible donation. This new 501(c)(3) foundation allows individual donors and businesses to specifically name their intended beneficiaries in San Clemente, from deserving youth organizations to schools, Seniors or other San Clemente groups in need of a generous gift.

About the Foundation

The Kiwanis Club of San Clemente has set a big goal: Raise $100,000 by 2010 and distribute $30,000 annually thereafter. Your donation can help further these efforts and increase the good being done for the community of San Clemente.

The Foundation has been chartered separately from Kiwanis Club of Scn Clemente and has received favorable 501(c)(3) tax status, so donations are tax-deductible*. The Foundation was established to receive estate gifts, large donations and annual gifts.

Funds can be earmarked within the Foundation to restrict your gift to particular groups or grant categories. Donations to the Kiwanis Club of San Clemente Foundation are intended to fund local grants.

Although the Kiwanis Club recognizes children as the future and has named Young Children: Priority One, as its key focus, the foundation wants to broaden its efforts.
