Flags of Honor will fly to honor heroes, support kids and inspire generations.

The Kiwanis Club of El Centro has launched the Flag of Honor program. Creating a tradition to celebrate patriotism while raising funds to support local children. Hundreds of Flags of Honor will fly during key patriotic holidays. The flags will line Imperial Avenue in El Centro to create a display of unity and pride. Businesses and individuals can sponsor a flag for $100.00 per year. Sponsors may dedicate their flag in honor of a loved one, a veteran, or community hero. Funds raised by the local Kiwanis Club support scholarships for local students, literacy and reading initiatives as well as after school and youth leadership programs. The first holiday to feature the Flags of Honor will be Veterans Day, November 11, 2025.
