When a disaster strikes the foundation uses your donations to the Disaster Assistance Fund (DAF) to help–100% of funds donated go exclusively to declared disasters for assistance.
If you or your area are affected, the Disaster Assistance Fund (DAF) provides help in the event of a natural or man-made disaster declared by the local, state, or Federal government, or the District Governor or Foundation President.
Assistance is available directly to a Kiwanian or a Kiwanis family, or to support Kiwanis club projects assisting with disaster relief efforts in their communities.
Assistance is limited to one time per project or per Kiwanis family per disaster.
Multiple requests from a Kiwanis club in any 30-day period will be considered; however, consideration will first be given to Kiwanis clubs applying for the first time in the initial 30 days.
If the club already spent money on a project, include copies of your receipts as part of the application’s project budget.
Assistance is limited to the amount available in the Disaster Assistance Fund.
If assistance is approved for a Kiwanis club project, The Kiwanis club shall
Furnish the Capital District Kiwanis Foundation with an assistance and funds expenditure report within 30 days of completion of the project. This report shall include photos and video clips, if available, copies of all promotional materials (newsletter articles, website posts, etc.) and other data related to the assistance received. Failure to report will result in disqualifying your club for future assistance.
Acknowledge assistance from Capital Kiwanis and the Capital District Kiwanis Foundation in all public relations notices. If posting to social media, on your website mention https://k03.site.kiwanis.org/foundation/ and https://capitaldistrictkiwanis, and on Facebook mention @capitaldistrictkiwanisfoundation and @capitaldistrictkiwanis.
The foundation supports causes that positively effects the children of the world. Every Kiwanian in the Capital District is a member of the Capital District Kiwanis Foundation.
This month, CDKF Board Member Don Dudley presented the CDKF annual donation of $3,000 to Rose Bevilacqa of the Hospital Foundation at Nemours Children's Health.
The funds will be used to support their garden program which is maintained by the Nemours Estate employees for the benefit of the children of the hospital. The food grown here goes to families of children in the hospital who are in need of assistance for the needs of the families. Nemours treats children ages prenatal to 18 years of age. Once they turn 18, if possible, they will be transferred to the Christinia hospital in Newark, DE about 5 miles from this hospital.
