Doughnut and a Book
01/31/24 East Spokane Kiwanis members recently shared the gift of reading with preschoolers and their parents at W Whitman Elementary School. The “doughnut and book” event was attended by East Spokane Kiwanians, Mallory, Teresa, Lee and former Whitman principal, Bev Lund. Mallory read two books aloud demonstrating reading strategies. The children and parents were thrilled with their books!

New Book Bank Location
Hundreds of volunteer hours have gone into moving the Spokane area Kiwanis Book Bank to the new location at the Pratt Academy School Building located at 6903 E Fourth Ave from the Keystone Elementary location in Spokane Valley. The Book Bank is a Division-wide project of the Greater Spokane Area (formerly Division 46) Kiwanis Division. The move was coordinated by East Spokane Club members Mallory Thomas and Val Kjack. Volunteers from a number of Spokane area clubs joined in to move shelves and books over a two-month period. Job well done! (10-21)
