Moraga Kiwanis has just concluded a very successful effort to bring See's Candies to Lamorinda for the holidays. The response was extraordinary. The net proceeds from this fundraiser will go to community service and charitable organizations. These included local causes such as the Moraga Education Foundation, the Education Foundation of Orinda, Lafayette Partners in Education, the Monument Crisis Center, and the Food Bank.
Many of the people that came through our doors said "Thank you, Kiwanis for providing this service to our community." Moraga Kiwanis would like to extend a big thank you to Lamorinda - Thank you for your support of our efforts to promote Lamorinda, to make it an even better place to live and to raise our children.
Moraga Kiwanis plans to be back again next year, offering See's finest holiday California candies to all in Lamorinda. More importantly, we look forward to putting our funds to work in our communities.
The club also extends special thanks to CVS, Kimco, and the Moraga Farmers Market, which generously provided us space for this fundraiser.
Moraga Kiwanis meets every Thursday at 7:15 a.m. at the Moraga Valley Presbyterian Church. Guests are always welcome. For more information, go to www.MoragaValleyKiwanis.Org.
