Nelly Estrada is a UTB-TSC (now UTRGV) and UT-Austin CKI alumna. She was raised in Brownsville, Texas and moved to Austin to attend The University of Texas at Austin. She obtained a Bachelor’s in Biology in 2014, and became a Teach for America Corps Member in Arkansas thereafter. She is currently a Cardiology Services Tech and a Research Volunteer at St. David’s Medical Center.
Her journey in the Kiwanis-family began in 2008 and she has enjoyed it ever since! She was Vice-President, Secretary, and Committee Member. She received scholarships for two consecutive years and was named the Outstanding Chapter Secretary of the Texas-Oklahoma District of CKI in 2013. She is thrilled to be a Kiwanian and to serve her community.
We’re an organization of volunteers serving the community and children of greater Austin, Texas.
As we commemorate this Martin Luther King Jr Day, we’re grateful to our Cedar Park and Leander community supporters, including our newest one this year, @serenitea_cup, for their participation in our flag program!
Donations from the program support our sponsored Key Clubs and service projects across the area.
We were thrilled to have Audrey from @fostervillageaustin join us at our meeting last night to tell us about the innovate work they’re doing in Austin and across the country to support families and children in the foster care system. We’re looking forward to opportunities to get involved!
In a surprise during our conversation, we learned that she discovered her love of service when she was the charter club president of @mnthskeyclub!
We also had a late presentation to Howard Friedman as our outstanding new member for the 2024-25 year! Since joining he’s been a regular at meetings, volunteers with us at the Ronald McDonald House, and at the butterfly festival at Winn.
Grateful for the @thejuniorleagueofaustin letting us come out and help sort coats for kids with other amazing organizations, we were able to sort over 3000+ coats for kids! They will hand out over 30k coats back to our community so we are happy to play a small part in that process!
