At our weekly luncheon on July 16th, we had the pleasure of hearing from Elizabeth King and Michelle Foos of GLCAP Head Start, who shared how "Every Piece Matters" when it comes to helping children thrive. Head Start provides preschool and comprehensive support services for children ages 3–5, including early learning, healthy meals, health and dental services, and family engagement to help build a strong foundation for success. While eligibility is based in part on income, GLCAP works with each family individually to help determine the best childcare options for their unique circumstances. Thank you for sharing the incredible impact Head Start has on children and families throughout our region! Thank you to Gloria Nitschke for arranging this informative program and to Rachel McCoy for capturing this community minded program.

At our June 25th luncheon meeting, Kiwanis members welcomed Courtney Sturgill from Great Lakes Community Action Partnership (GLCAP) as our program speaker. Courtney shared information about the organization’s various energy assistance programs designed to help local families and individuals.
Members learned about programs including PIPP, the Winter Crisis Program, and the upcoming Summer Crisis Program, available July 1 through September 30. The Summer Crisis Program provides assistance with cooling needs such as electric utility bills, central air conditioning repairs, and air conditioning or fan purchases for eligible households, helping ensure residents can stay safe and comfortable during the warmer months.

Another highlight of the meeting was inducting our newest member, Administrative Assistant Missy Morales, with the Sandusky County Communities Foundation. Missy was inducted and sponsored by Past Lieutenant Governor Laurie Young. Welcome Missy, you will be a great addition to our fabulous club!

At our weekly Kiwanis luncheon meeting on June 18th , we enjoyed a recap of our Pitch, Hit, Run event held on June 4 in partnership with the Fremont Recreation Center. Youth Service Co-Chair Rachel McCoy, along with Jabryis Heidelburg and DeVaun Churchya, from the Fremont Rec Center shared highlights from the event.
We also heard from Superintendent Cody Bischoff of the Fremont Recreation Center, who shared exciting updates on all the summer programming available for kids, including a full calendar of free, daily activities that require no registration, made possible through partnerships with several local organizations.
Cody also gave an update on the upcoming America 250 Fourth of July Parade, taking place July 4 at 10 a.m. Kiwanis is excited to participate with a float celebrating the 1980–1999 era.
A great meeting highlighting community partnerships, youth engagement, and an exciting summer ahead! Thanks to Rachel McCoy for scheduling this informative program.

On May 28th, Heather Pollick, Executive Director, at the Sandusky County Land Bank presented at our weekly Kiwanis luncheon. Heather shared that many people are unfamiliar with what a Land Bank does, and she is passionate about helping the community better understand its impact. Formed in 2015, the Sandusky County Land Bank works to reduce blight, address unsafe properties, and improve neighborhoods throughout our county.
Although the organization operates with a small team of just two people, Heather and her staff are committed to improving quality of life in Sandusky County through the redevelopment and revitalization of properties.
The Land Bank oversees several programs, including demolition, vacant lot, side lot, commercial lot, and rehabilitation property programs. Most properties are acquired through the tax foreclosure process, which is often lengthy and complex, but plays an important role in returning neglected properties to productive use. A special thank you to Angie Ruiz for arranging this informative program and Rachel McCoy for the write-up.
