This is the Kiwanis main fundraiser of the year and 100% of the proceeds will go to the Lafayette Kiwanis Service Projects for children of the Acadiana area.

The Jamboree is being held to help the Kiwanis continue serving the community and its children. Last year, the Kiwanis collaborated with Lafayette City Parks & Recreation to build Parc Independence in Girard Park. It was opened October 26th. This is Lafayette's first park specifically designed to accommodate children with physical or developmental disabilities. Kiwanis purchased and donated all of the playground equipment.

Other projects include the “BUGS” or Bringing up Grades program, Wheels of Wonder, Kiwanis Endowed Scholarship at UL, the Regional Spelling Bee, the Operation Magi Christmas shopping trip for over one hundred needy children, and several other projects or sponsorships.

The Kiwanis Club of Lafayette would like to thank the 61st Annual Kiwanis Club Football Jamboree sponsors; Acadiana Sports Care Network, Courtesy Automotive Group, and Our Lady of Lourdes Regional Medical Center.
