Support local youth with Lynden Breakfast Kiwanis! We've donated $60K+ over 4 years & helped many local organizations through service and volunteering. Join us for weekly fellowship, community impact, and a mission that changes lives locally & globally.
Well, this morning there were 20 of us at breakfast but 7 people were from the Be The One ("BTO") mentorship program! The singing always sounds good but this morning it was full! It was interesting to hear the founders of this program, Nancy & Denny McHarness, talk about this program's humble beginnings and how it has grown over the years. Three mentor coordinators also gave us some insights into what they do. Left to right if you held a ruler straight up and down are: Don Schrock, Jan Holtrop, Jim Kaemingk, Ron Holtrop, John VandeHoef, Lisa Reynolds (BTO), Nancy & Denny McHarness (BTO), Paul Carr, Jonny King, Bill Helm, Samm VanKirk (BTO), Melissa Rus (BTO), Greg Rice (Kiwanis member and BTO mentor to 3 students!), Jeff Ness, Brad Hulbert, Cynthia Carlson (BTO mentor), and Lee Mielke. Missing from this group picture is Chuck Handy from BTO but he is in the picture where they were handed our check! These people are making such a HUGE difference in the lives of so many local students!!! So glad to give them some funds to keep up the good work! … See MoreSee Less
It was really nice to have all these "Be The One" mentorship program leaders join us for breakfast on April 1st! We always enjoy good singing with Lee Mielke leading us but nice to have extra voices today!

These people are all MAD: Making A Difference! Remember: Kiwanis is for Kids! … See MoreSee Less
