Memory bag project


Strongsville Kiwanis started our Memory Bag Program in 2002 as another way to serve the children of our community. Memory Bag is funded by Strongsville Kiwanis and overseen by members of the Strongsville School System.


Working with teachers and counselors, we are informed when a child experiences the death of someone close to them.  A Memory Bag is prepared that includes a book, a journal, writing materials, and other age appropriate items (such as a Teddy Bear) along with a sympathy card.  The Memory Bag is given to the child by their counselor or teacher. 


To date, we have provided over 750 Memory Bags to students from Pre-School through 12th Grade. 

read around the world


The Strongsville Kiwanis Club held our 13th annual Read-Around-The-World event at the Strongsville Library.

Over 150 children were in attendance with their families.   Children were able to choose a free age-appropriate book to take home with them.  Members of the Strongsville High School Key Club were on hand to help the children pick out books, and many took the opportunity to read to the children. The Saint Joseph & John Builder’s Club put on puppet shows to entertain the families. The Kiwanis Club provided the books, door prizes, cookies, drinks, and snacks. 

​

Thanks to our club members and the members of our sponsored youth programs for making this a great day!  A special thank you to everybody who attended Read-Around-The-World.
