Westfield Kiwanis is now accepting applications for summer camp scholarships for children whose families have a veteran, active-duty military member, law enforcement, firefighter or first responder as a parent/guardian or grandparent.
Scholarships are available to qualifying children ages 5-14 in the Greater Westfield area.
These scholarships are funded by the proceeds of the Westfield Kiwanis Club’s annual “To Serve and Protect Park of Honor,” which recognizes the service of our military members and other uniformed services with a display of U.S. flags on the lawn of Westfield Middle School. The display appears in November between Veterans Day and Thanksgiving.
Scholarship decisions are not based on financial need. The number of applications received will determine award amounts, and scholarships will be paid directly to the chosen camp program. Checks cannot be issued directly to the families.
