| The Sun City Georgetown Foundation was founded in 2003
as a tax-exempt 501 (c)(3) organization to be the charitable arm of the Sun City
Georgetown Kiwanis Club.
Simply stated the purposes of the Foundation are as
follows:
-
The
Foundation is organized exclusively for charitable, religious, and
educational purposes.
-
The
Foundation is organized to receive charitable contributions and to
provide the funding that carries out the charitable, religious, and
educational objectives of the Sun City Georgetown Kiwanis Club.
-
The
Foundation is organized to provide such funding either by direct
grants and scholarships to worthy recipients or by grants to other
organizations that qualify as tax-exempt organizations.
The goal of Your Foundation is to establish a
"Corpus"* large enough to draw interest to support activities of the
Club.
*Webster says: corpus n. the principal as
distinguished from interest or income of an investment.
A seven member Board of Trustees, all of whom are
members of the Kiwanis Club of Sun City Georgetown , directs the Foundation.
The trustees, their offices, and their terms of service are as follows:

Donations,
Memorials and Tributes
The
Foundation actively solicits and gladly receives donations honoring
Kiwanians for their service or in memory of relatives and friends whom
people would chose to remember. Contributions to the Foundation for any
reason are tax deductible and will ultimately benefit the children of
Williamson County, Texas, and the world. The Foundation’s long-term goal
is to build a corpus from which interest can be drawn to further support
the charitable work of the Club.
Memorials: It's never easy telling someone "I care" when a
relative, friend or fellow Kiwanian is lost. You want to express
yourself, but words are inadequate. A memorial may help you convey
your emotion and concern.
Tributes: One the occasions of a birth, anniversary, birthday,
or other "happy" event, you may choose to contribute to the Sun City
Kiwanis Foundation. This allows you to honor someone while at the
same time help children in need through your Sun City Kiwanis
Foundation.
