Thanksgiving is over and in a short time another Holiday Season will be here. For the majority of Levittown residents, it means a wonderful time of year to be spent with family and friends.

The Levittown Kiwanis Club is especially hard at work this time of the year. Why, because we want to help as many children in our community as possible to have an even better Holiday Season.

This is a special time of year for many people. On Friday, Dec. 12 at Summit Lane School, the Kiwanis Club will host a party for the Developmental Learning Program. This is something the club does on a yearly basis. Specially picked toys will be given out by Santa Claus and some refreshments will be served. If you would care to donate funds for this particular event, please send your check to:

The Levittown Kiwanis Club

P.O. Box 152

Levittown, NY 11756

Make your check payable to: Levittown Kiwanis Club (Mark it for Special Toys).

Please help people in your community. Donate to our annual food drive.

Please be a Kiwanian!

Would you like to join an organization of community people who give back to their community? Are you interested in joining? Please come to one of our meetings for a "look see." I guarantee you'll be impressed.

Did you know Kiwanis has a website? For you computer hackers: check out the Kiwanis International website at www.kiwanis.org.

Please save all your soda/drink flip top tabs and all your Campbell soup labels and General Mills box tops and turn them in to the Levittown Kiwanis Club at one of our meetings. You may ask: why labels and soda tabs? The labels and box tops go to St. Jude's Ranch for Children, which they redeem for a monetary amount. The soda tabs go to the Fork Lane School in Hicksville and they give them to the Nassau County Medical Center Burn Unit.
