Achievement Award Grants: This grant is in recognition of the accomplishments of your club in carrying out the objects of Kiwanis and our slogan "Serving the Children of the World." Clubs are selected by a committee which grades the Club Service Achievement Report. The fund from which these awards are made has its origin dating back to 1930 when clubs in the Santa Barbara area established a trust from which $150.00 per year was awarded to the four winning clubs of the "Annual District Efficiency Contest." This $150.00 award remained the same from 1930 until 1998. The Kiwanis Cal-Nev-Ha Foundation now administers this fund and awards winning clubs in three categories grants of $1,500.

Club Grants: The Kiwanis Cal-Nev-Ha Foundation supports Kiwanis clubs' interest in their local community needs. Often, however, a community need may far exceed a club's ability to get the project started. The club grant program was developed in 1984 to assist clubs with seed money when the scope of the project exceeds the club's financial resources.

Pediatric Trauma Program (PTP) Grants: As part of our major focus, our Foundation provides grants to assist Kiwanis and Service Leadership Programs (SLP) clubs in financing new service projects which address pediatric trauma and injury prevention. Many times, a club will give up on a worthwhile project because the funds required to start the project are not available. The Cal-Nev-Ha Foundation makes available PTP grants for new projects by providing matching start-up funds. PTP grants may be awarded to a single Kiwanis club; a single SLP club; two or more clubs working together on a single project; or to a single division in which all clubs are working together on the project.
