Occurring every September, Pretzel Days is an annual fundraising event organized by our club. During this event, members and volunteers distribute pretzels in bags and solicit donations from the public, typically at street corners and shopping centers. The funds raised are used to support various community projects, with a particular focus on initiatives benefiting children and youth. See our calendar for the specific dates this year!
Who We Support

Every year, our Kiwanis club raises continuing education funds for the Glenbrook South and Glenbrook North High School Key Clubs through various fundraising initiatives, including Pretzel Days, community/sports drawings, and raffles.
Study Buddies (Youth Services of Glenview-Northbrook)
Study Buddies is a free academic-support program designed for children in grades 1-8.

Our speakers this week were from our own Glenbrook High School, District 225: Carol Smith, Executive Director of Communications; Dr. Gravel, Superintendent; Dr. Kim Ptak, Director of Operations; and Mrs. Lauren Bonner, Incoming Assistant Superintendent of Student Experiences. They each spoke about District 225's 2027 Capital Projects, which are being financed without referendums by generating power and adding to the "grid," and how the new stadiums/outdoor areas at GBS and GBN will be assets open to the community at large. An excellent presentation that clearly exemplified the amazing cooperation and support among our community organizations as they work together to build a strong, close-knit community, as always.
