MORE ABOUT NORTH GWINNETT KIWANIS CLUB

The Kiwanis Club of North Gwinnett proudly sponsors four area high school Key Clubs: Mill Creek, North Gwinnett, Buford, and Lanier. We also sponsor two K Kids Clubs (Kindergarten thru 5th grade) at Ivy Creek Elementary and Burnette Elementary schools. These clubs receive mentorship from our Kiwanis Club, and along with the leadership of their school faculty advisor, participate in a number of service projects that benefit the community. Throughout the year, Kiwanis members raise monies through various projects such as the annual Father Daughter Valentine Dance in the Winter, the Vidalia Onion sale in the Spring, and a Golf Tournament in the Fall. Monies raised from these projects are returned locally in the support of the Boy Scouts, Girls State, Gwinnett Children’s Shelter, North Gwinnett Co-Op, and scholarships for our local high school seniors. Throughout the many years, the Kiwanis Club of North Gwinnett has awarded over $150,000 to high school seniors for academic scholarships. In keeping with the Kiwanis Motto of “Serving the children of the world”, we support other charitable groups within the community and numerous charitable groups through the State and National Kiwanis Organization.

Our membership consists of business men and women who value the giving of their time and talents in the service of others. We meet every Tuesday in far ballroom located on the top floor of the Buford Community Center from 12:00 – 1:00 located at 2200 Buford Highway, Buford, Georgia.

By Shara Ryan • January 2, 2026

As we head into the new year, we are kicking things off with exciting news for the Sugar Hill and Suwanee community, because Team Ryan Automotive is officially in town! Since opening our doors in 2015, Team Ryan Automotive has proudly delivered exceptional service and trustworthy repairs in Buford, GA (Gwinnett County) and Cumming, GA (Forsyth County). Today, we are excited to bring that same level of care, expertise, and community commitment to drivers in Sugar Hill and Suwanee with our newest location at 820 Brogdon Rd, Suwanee, GA 30024. Did you know that it's possible to be in Sugar Hill city limits while having a Suwanee address? That's exactly where our Team Ryan Automotive Sugar Hill / Suwanee location is positioned. A Meaningful Transition This new location represents a special passing of the torch. After 26 years in Gwinnett County, John and Lori of J & L Automotive are retiring and entrusting their previous customers to be taken care of into 2026 and beyond by Team Ryan. As a husband and wife team, John and Lori built their business on trust and care. Those same values continue with husband and wife team Dan and Shara of Team Ryan Automotive, making this transition a natural fit and a continuation of a strong local legacy.

Proud to Support Champions: Congratulations to the Buford Wolves

By Shara Ryan • December 22, 2025

What an incredible season and a moment of pride for the entire Buford community. This championship represents a true dedication to hard work, discipline, and teamwork, and it is a testament to a program that continues to set the standard both on and off the field. At Team Ryan Automotive, we are incredibly proud to be a sponsor of this outstanding program, not only for what these athletes accomplish under the Friday night lights, but for the leadership and character they demonstrate beyond the game. The Buford Wolves consistently show that success is about more than wins and trophies. It is about integrity, accountability, and lifting others up along the way. Earlier this year at a Buford Academy pep rally, the football team took time to personally connect with every child in the room, making each student feel seen and valued. Moments like that show what this program truly stands for. Character. Community. And doing the right thing even when no one is watching. Our son Aidan shared how much it meant to him that he “got to slap hands with the real football team players,” a small moment that left a big impression. Experiences like that inspire younger students and remind all of us how powerful positive role models can be. That spirit of leadership and heart is something our family and our entire team at Team Ryan Automotive align with wholeheartedly. We believe in showing up for our community, supporting one another, and leading by example, values we see reflected so clearly in this program. Well earned, Wolves. Buford is proud of you, and we are honored to stand behind such an incredible team. 💚🏈
