DOVER — The Kiwanis Club of Greater Dover held a highly successful Community Clothing Giveaway on November 15 at the Meridia Transit Courtyard, bringing warmth, comfort, and essential items to families across the community.
The club expressed its deep gratitude to Howard’s Mission, The Gellman Foundation, and the Sparta Community Food Pantry for their generous donations, which made the event possible. Their contributions helped supply quality clothing, fresh bread, vegetables, beverages, and other essentials vital to local families preparing for the winter season.
Kiwanis volunteers worked diligently throughout the day, ensuring a smooth, welcoming, and dignified distribution process for all attendees.
“This is what community looks like,” said Sergio Rodriguez, President of the Kiwanis Club of Greater Dover. “When organizations and volunteers come together with one goal—helping families—we create real impact. Today was proof of what we can accomplish together.”
The event also highlighted the broader mission of Kiwanis service.
Frank Cahill, Governor of the New Jersey District of Kiwanis International, praised the effort and collaboration behind the giveaway. “Our clubs across New Jersey continue to show what service leadership truly means,” Cahill said. “The Greater Dover club, along with its community partners, demonstrated compassion, coordination, and commitment. This is how Kiwanis changes lives, one family at a time.”
The Kiwanis Club of Greater Dover plans to continue offering support to local families through future community programs and outreach initiatives.
