Chelsie Higdon has been a part of the Kiwanis Family going on nine years now and is honored to continue that journey with the Kiwanis Club of Silicon Hills.
A previous CKI member, Chelsie has held a variety of roles since 2016 ending her journey as an International Trustee and being inducted into CKI Hall of Fame, this love for our SLPs continued as she served as Assistant District Admin for the Carolinas District for two years prior to her move to Austin, TX. From there she joined our club became part of the Board of Directors and was recently elected President-Elect for our club for the 25-26 year where she also decided to continue her love for CKI by being appointed as an ADA for the Texas Oklahoma District of CKI as well.
Outside of her Kiwanis family journey, Chelsie is a Senior IT Project Manager at the General Land Office here in Austin, and also a provisional member for the Junior League of Austin continuing her love for serving others. She’s engaged to one of our other members Brandon Phifer with plans to be married this October back home in NC. She enjoys traveling with her partner especially to national parks where they’ve visited 23/63 at this time, loves going to local concerts, and comedy shows here in Austin and loves to cuddle with their cat Evelyn when at home. Overall, She looks forward to her upcoming presidential term for the club and helping the club continue to reach its potential.
We’re an organization of volunteers serving the community and children of greater Austin, Texas.
🌳 Service in action at Rosewood Park with the Austin Parks Foundation!
Three members of the Kiwanis Club of Silicon Hills; plus one little helper joined forces with the Austin Parks Foundation and fellow volunteers to give the trees at Rosewood Park some much-needed TLC.
In just two hours, we helped mulch around 25 trees! 🌳💪
A little teamwork, a lot of mulch, and one morning well spent caring for a park our Austin community can enjoy this summer!
We love opportunities to roll up our sleeves, serve together, and make a difference right here in our community. 💙
Join us at our next event Sept 19th where we will be organizing school supplies for drop off to a school in need! Link in the bio!
We have an exciting lineup of service projects, community partnerships, and fellowship opportunities coming up!
From supporting local nonprofits through service, to our monthly meetings at Galaxy Cafe, there’s a place for everyone to get involved and make an impact.
💙 Upcoming Highlights: 🌟 June 9 – @cc4corg Speaker & Service Project 🌳 June 20 – Park Revitalization Morning with @austinparksfdn 🏳️🌈 June 27 – Pease Park Pride Picnic Setup with @peasepark 🎨 July 19 – @austincreativereuse Volunteer Day 🎉 Sept. 27 – End of Year Celebration 🚗 Oct. 25 – VW Harvest Festival with @vw_harvest

Plus, also join us for our monthly Kiwanis meetings at Galaxy Cafe throughout the summer and fall on the second Tuesday of the month at 7 pm!
Today we gathered for our annual Kiwanis luncheon to celebrate a year of service, leadership, and impact. 💙💛
During the meeting, we reflected on our accomplishments, shared updates on our service projects, elected our 26’-27’ club leaders and were honored to share our Distinguished Status for the 2024–2025 year from our district.
We also recognized one of our incredible Key Clubs faculty advisor, with a well-deserved award for her dedication and support of one of our sponsored youth programs.
Lastly we really loved hearing from the leaders of @cedarshs_keyclub as they shared highlights from their Key Club year and their experiences at LEDCON as our club helped sponsor their attendance!
Thank you to everyone who helped make this year a success so far! & Thank you to @casachapala for hosting us! We can’t wait to continue serving our community together!
