Corvallis Kiwanis Foundation

The Corvallis Kiwanis Foundation (TCKF) is a 501(c)(3) corporation that was incorporated in July 1973 by the two Corvallis-area Kiwanis clubs: the Kiwanis Club of Corvallis and the Kiwanis Club of Corvallis Sunrisers.  Donations made to the Foundation do qualify as charitable contributions according to both State and Federal requirements.

Primary purposes of The Foundation are:

  • To assist all persons to have successful, enriched and meaningful lives;
  • To assist young people in attaining vocational and scholastic excellence;
  • To assist individuals with disabilities in achieving meaningful work independence, integration and inclusion;
  • To assist other deserving individuals and organizations in charitable, educational, scientific research and other humanitarian purposes with financial and/or other means of assistance;
  • To support and encourage projects and programs which will, in the judgment of the Officers and the Board of Directors of The Foundation, improve the quality of life in the greater Corvallis area.
