Hooray!! It's a check presentation day!

Today, our Visual & Performing Arts committee presented Donna Henry of Chicago Street Theatre with a check to help support their summer programming for kids. We also presented Jean Sienkowski, Principal of Benjamin Franklin Middle School, with a donation to support their Science Olympiad and Robotics teams.

This is why we do what we do. Feel free to join us any Wednesday.

Spend your Thursday supporting our Ramps program and an amazing local business: 219 Taproom in Chesterton, owned by Chesterton Duneland Kiwanis member, Joe Juarez!

Joe has graciously chosen our ramp project as their Giving Thursday recipient. We hope to see lots of friends there helping raise money to support our free ramp installations for our community members with mobility issues.

To date, we have installed 269 ramps and have impacted hundreds of lives by helping caregivers and patients have the ability to enter and exit their homes with ease.

Hope to see you there!

What a month it's been! We welcomed Doug Montgomery, Jon C. Miller, Suzette Sorrells, and Dan Bizik as new members. 🎉

We also had a visit from Bill Oeding, who told us all about the work Paradise Community Homes is doing to help people purchase their first homes.

Today, we were riveted by Porter County Prosecutor Gary Germann's talk as he discussed crime trends in the city and across the country, and the tireless work he and his office do to promote justice.

June is a great month to join Kiwanis (hint, hint!) If you'd like to visit our meetings to see what we're all about, just send us a message.

Today we remember, with gratitude, those who sacrificed everything so that others may be free.
