The cost is $8.00 per person, and tickets can be purchased at the door.
The motto of Kiwanis is serving the children of the world one child and one community at a time. The Montgomery Co.-Blacksburg Kiwanis Club meets every Thursday for lunch at Warm Hearth Village, Blacksburg with a program from 12:30 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.
The club stocks food pantries at two elementary schools for 4- and 5-year-old students and provides funds for 10 classrooms to buy books for students to read, for ID kits for parents of newborn and young children. The club also donates to the Montgomery County Christmas Store, purchases gifts for 40 Salvation Army Christmas Angels, donates to Scouts BSA, Boys/Girls State, county child abuse and foster care, the Women’s Resource Center, and the Salvation Army.
