Kiwanis Club Of Barstow was
founded in 1926 . The club
began with just a few
members and has grown to its
current membership of 26 .
Over the years, the club has
held many fundraisers,
including pancake
breakfasts, spaghetti feeds
and other events. We help
out in the community in a
variety of ways, including
sponsoring youth groups,
highway clean-ups, raising
money to benefit children
and children’s support
groups, and providing
scholarships. The club has
enjoyed a rich history over
the years, with its members
coming from fields like
accounting, civil service,
education, management, and
many more. For more

We are one of the
oldest service clubs
in the Mojave
Desert. Our

These activities and
generous donations
allow us to support

baskets, youth
sports, literacy and
library programs and
college
scholarships.
We donate our time
and energy to; Make
a Difference Day,
BUG and Terrific
Kids school
programs,

Relay for Life Kids
Camp. Our oldest
continuing community
service project is
the Mardi Gras
Parade, which was
first held in 1933.
Kiwanis is an
organization
committed to serving
the children of our
community and the
world. We take this
commitment very
seriously.
