Each year the Kiwanis Club of Kirkland (KCK) sponsors a donation drive for Eastside Baby Corner (EBC). Serving a broad area in east King County, EBC is the major source of baby food, formula, diapers, cribs and car seats for ten local food banks. EBC’s goal is to support parents who are trying hard to give their children a better life and for the babies and children who need a full tummy, a warm coat and a safe ride home. The Kiwanis Club continues to help EBC accomplish its motto of “helping over 500 children every week”.
This year the Kiwanis donation drive runs through Dec. 14. The drop off location for donations is Merrill Gardens of Kirkland, located at 201 Kirkland Ave. in Kirkland.
The highest donation needs are powdered formula, baby food, diapers and pull ups, blankets and bedding, warm coats, clothes and shoes (especially boys).
