WE NEED YOUR HELP! The Posada Family Homeless Shelter Supply DriveOngoing support appreciated!
Ongoing support appreciated!
One of our club's signature projects is the adoption of 2 apartments at the only homeless shelter that allows childern, run by Posada of Pueblo. Each time a family moves in (sometimes in the middle of the night), we provide them a large plastic tub of supplies for them to use, and keep when they are back on their feet and move on.
Ways to participate:
For more information on the drive and how to get involved, contact us @ pueblokiwanisclub@gmail.com
These items included bedding, sheets, towels, kitchen utensils, pots & pans, plates, silverware, bathroom toiletries, and more. We collect the items, create the supply tubs and give to the POSADA administrator to have ready to go at any moment a family arrives in one of our units.
Last year our club provided for 8 families. Our goal this year is to prepare 4 tubs in advance, to have ready at all times.
Ways to participate:
- Email us clicking this link POSADA to receive a list of items needed. Purchase as many items as you'd like, (some items may be slightly used from your own closet, kitchen and such)
- Donate money and our volunteers will purchase the needed items on your behalf, and keep you in the loop of what was purchased.

Our club focuses on community initiatives and children-centered projects, striving to uplift local children by fostering growth and empowerment for a brighter future.
Our on going club initiative is providing supplies & support to two of the apartments for homeless families with children. We are always in need of supplies to keep on hand and ready for the next family in need.
We are passionate about raising funds to offer financial support for higher education through various annual scholarships. Our scholarships are for students who were involved in Key Club at their high school and plan to attend Colorado State University Pueblo, or Pueblo Community College.
Applications are available from the school's counselors.
Our club has given out over $80,000 in the history of this project.
Through our 501c3 Foundation we continue to support other local non-profits who's missions align with ours; bettering children's lives.
Our Foundation has an orthodontia partnership with several local Orthodontists to assist in providing financial support for severe cases of orthodontic need.
**family must be nominated by orthodontist to be considered***
