Bartlesville Radio: The area’s best source for news, weather and sports!

The Kiwanis Club of Bartlesville awarded over $5,000 in cash and prizes to participating nonprofit organizations at the first annual Celebrate GIVING! at The Center on Tuesday evening.  

Celebrate GIVING! is a new event organized by the Kiwanis Club of Bartlesville to recognize community nonprofit organizations and to share information with the public about their vital missions.  For the past 8 years Kiwanis hosted "the wreath event" and the finale party was always the hit of the event so Kiwansi decided to make this all about the party and it' was FREE. 

Thanks to presenting sponsor DSR, host The Center and many prize sponsors including Jane Phillips Society, The Bartlesville Regional Chamber of Commerce, Roots & Blooms, Moxie on Second and donations from individuals the holiday season will be brighter.
