“Building a bright future through charitable giving.”

The Bay-Osos Kiwanis Foundation was established in 2005 to receive, manage and distribute endowed funds that will be used to support the needs of the Los Osos and Morro Bay communities—now and well into the future. Individual donations are combined in a local account, then awarded to non-profit organizations, school programs and community projects. All donated funds stay local and go directly to specified programs. Administrative positions are filled by local Kiwanis members who are community volunteers.

In December 2007, the Kiwanis Community Foundation will award its first public grant through an application process. For more information about this grant, click the “Coastal Kids Fund” tab below.
