The Kiwanis Club of Botetourt County Charitable Foundation, Inc.
Established in 1994
The Kiwanis Club of Botetourt County Charitable Foundation, Inc., was established in 1994 as a 501.c.3 corporation specifically to assist needful deserving persons, particularly young people; to assist worthy individuals in attaining vocational excellence; and to aid other persons in gaining happy, useful lives through the expending of funds directly for such purposes or by the furnishing of funds to other organizations organized for charitable, scientific research, or educational purposes, or the prevention of cruelty to children, or, any other activity or cause that fits into the definition of charitable uses as defined by Section 501(C)(3)
The Foundation awards scholarships to graduating seniors at the two high schools in Botetourt County as well as the County Technical Education Center. Additionally, the Foundation provides a cash award to the Teacher of the Year chosen by the County Education Administrators. The Foundation has also provided both the Dabney Lancaster Community College and the Virginia Western Community College with $30,000 endowments to provide continuing scholarships to local students.
Funding for these scholarships and awards is provided by earmarked Club activities and by the Club donating all funds in excess of its needs at the end of each year to the Foundation.
