Last week we had a great presentation from Dr. Eric Dieter, Executive Director of Pre-College Academic Readiness Programs, of the UT Division of Diversity & Community Engagement. He shared some great details about the variety of programs in Austin and across the state that are helping improve higher education outcomes for scores of youth.
This week we’re glad to welcome Erin Douglas, Membership Director of the YMCA of Austin, as our guest speaker. Erin has been part of the Y movement for over 11 years. She believes strongly that life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it. We are all in charge of our attitudes. In her spare time, she enjoys live music and singing.
March 4-6 is also the Texas-Oklahoma District of CKI’s annual convention. Members from colleges and universities across the district will gather to learn develop professional skills, vote on changes to district bylaws, elect a new district board of officers, compete for scholarships, and celebrate the service and leadership accomplishments of the members and chapters. Our own President-Elect and past Governor of the Texas-Oklahoma District of CKI, John Cano, will be in attendance and will provide a summary at our club meeting on March 10.
Don’t forgot about National Pancake Day on March 8th! Volunteer shifts will be posted very soon on our club site’s Club Projects page.

We’re an organization of volunteers serving the community and children of greater Austin, Texas.
Started out our Saturday Morning with Service!
This morning, 7 members across Key Club, CKI, and Silicon Hills Kiwanis came together for our Restock the School event. In just about an hour, we packed 20 backpacks 🎒with supplies for an elementary school in need and a few extras left! ✏️📚
It’s amazing what can happen when the Kiwanis family works together. Thank you to everyone who showed up, pitched in, and helped make sure local students have the supplies they need to succeed! 🌟
🌳 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
