GET INVOLVED AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Second Harvest is committed to doing whatever it takes to build a hunger-free community. That means distributing nutritious food to nearly every neighborhood in Silicon Valley, leveraging every available food resource, and collaborating with organizations like Kiwanis who share the belief that hunger is unacceptable. Nutritious food is the foundation for a healthy, productive life.

The Kiwanis Special Games were created to address the physical and emotional needs of the substantial number of extremely challenged children in the schools of our region. The Special Games exclude no one. The Games were first organized in 1979 by two PE teachers and Los Altos Kiwanian Walter Chronert. Under Walt’s leadership, spanning more then 25 years, the Games flourished from modest beginnings. It continues to be a tradition for Kiwanis now for over 75 years.  CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
