Kinette Club of Ponoka

Every year we are involved in many projects and we are always looking for new ideas or ways to improve the old!
Here are a few that our organization is involved with:
>Canadian blood donor clinics.
We volunteer twice a year. Helping to direct donors and serve them refreshments after their blood donation.
>Ponoka Hospital and Care Centre.
Every November we take cake and serve it to the long term care patients.
>Ronald McDonald House.
We prepare a meal for families staying at the house.
> Sommer's Garden (Ponoka Hospital and Care Centre).
We gather donated flowers and have a work bee to plant flowers and clean up the garden area.
>Done in a Day projects.
In recent years we have organized small scale projects that immediately give back to the community. For example we help at the food bank and the Sommer's Garden planting.
>Community Donations.
We are proud to give back to our community through donations to a variety of causes such as the School lunch program, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Community Christmas, The Ponoka Youth Centre and the Centennial Centre to name a few.
>Graduation Bursary.
Our club sponsors a $500 bursary at the Ponoka Secondary Campus.
>Casino.
we work a casino with AGLC in Red Deer every 3 years to raise money for our club that we give back to the community through our various projects and activities.
