STUDENTS OF CSU SACRAMENTO HOST ANNUAL HOLIDAY SERVICE PROJECT

SACRAMENTO, California; December 10, 2016 — Sacramento State’s chapter of Circle K International (CKI) and East Sacramento Kiwanis Club, community service organizations, hosted their 6th annual Santa’s Gift of Service event in the Sacramento State Student Union from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

A record-breaking 343 volunteers – members of Kiwanis, Circle K, and Key Club – joined together, surpassing last year’s number of 300 volunteers. Together, they made 300 scarves and hats for the homeless and decorated and filled Christmas stockings with Christmas cards, bookmarks and bracelets to be donated to the patients at Shriner’s Hospital for the holidays.

“Sacramento State annually hosts this event to build relationships among the Kiwanis Family and to help the community… We hope the scarves and hats will keep those who are less fortunate warm through these cold winter months, and we hope the stuffed stockings will spread holiday cheer and comfort the patients at Shriner’s Hospital,” said Edward Huang.

About Circle K International Sacramento State
Circle K is the largest collegiate community service, leadership development, and friendship organization in the world. Circle K clubs are organized and sponsored by a Kiwanis club on a college or university campus. It is a student led, self-governing, organization and elects its own officers, conducts its own meetings, and determines its own service activities. This high degree of autonomy allows for a unique service experience driven entirely by the members for the members.

Circle K International at Sacramento State was rechartered on November 21st, 2005 and we are sponsored by the East Sacramento Kiwanis Club.
