The Rockwall County Kiwanis Club has been recognized with the Kiwanis International Distinguished Club Award for the 2024–2025 fiscal year, one of the organization’s highest honors recognizing excellence in service, leadership, membership growth, and Kiwanis education.
The Distinguished Club Award is presented to Kiwanis clubs that meet established criteria demonstrating an outstanding commitment to serving their communities while strengthening their club through active membership and continued leadership development.
The Rockwall County Kiwanis Club proudly serves the community through a variety of programs and events, including:
- Food for Kids weekend meal program for local students facing food insecurity
- Angel League baseball providing opportunities for children with special needs
- Key Club at Royse City high school, helping develop the next generation of community leaders
- TriRock Triathlon – sprint triathlon raising funds for the club and bringing in over 300 participants from Texas and surrounding states
- Hometown Christmas Parade in Rockwall Texas raising funds for the club
As the club begins a new Kiwanis year, members are looking forward to expanding these programs and welcoming new volunteers who share a passion for serving others.
Community members interested in learning more are invited to attend an upcoming Food for Kids meal packing event on August 18, September 8, October 20, or November 10, where volunteers pack more than 1,000 weekend food bags for local elementary students each month at Divine Peace Church in Rockwall at noon.
The Rockwall County Kiwanis Club also welcomes visitors at its regular meetings and encourages anyone interested in making a difference in the community to attend. Whether you have an hour to volunteer, a desire to support local youth, or simply want to learn more about Kiwanis, there is a place for you.
