The Kiwanis Club of Rolling Hills Estates is a group of private individuals, educators, businesspersons, and professionals whose primary mission is to serve children in our extended community.
The Club is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) community service organization dedicated to supporting children both directly and through various local charitable and deserving community organizations. Kiwanis activities involve raising money through projects such as the Palos Verdes Half: Half Marathon and 5K Run, musical benefits and other events. We donate ALL proceeds to community programs that help kids.

The organization’s mission is not to create runners within the homeless population, but to use running to create self-sufficiency in the lives of those experiencing homelessness. The program’s success is measured by how many Members obtaining independence through employment, job training and housing.
Through dedication and hard work, Residential Members (those experiencing homelessness) earn the opportunity to create a new road for themselves. Running leads to personal transformation and dedication to the program leads to access to training, employment and housing resources. Through community and corporate support, the program strives to change the perception of homelessness.
