Pressing On!

At Valpo Sunrise Kiwanis, we are people-centered. We enjoy each other’s company during weekly meetings and appreciate working side-by-side on all of our projects. Sadly, COVID-19 is affecting our ability to safely be together. For that reason, we have postponed our meetings at Viking Chili Bowl until further notice. However, we are pressing on towards the future! There are still children in need and we will continue to help. Also, there are still plenty of opportunities for members of the community to support our mission.

Things may look a little different for now, but our resolve is unchanging. Our board meetings are held virtually and we are continuing to work on our fundraisers. Although our Garage Sale in May will likely be rescheduled, we are pressing on with our Golf Outing on August 6th. We are still looking for hole sponsors, golf, and/or drink sponsors. We are open and set up to take those donations.

During this time of social isolation, it is exciting to think about the future! The joy of the 2020 holiday season will be here before we know it, and all of our operations should be back to normal by then. Although some things are on hold, we are movers and doers. As soon as we can safely start meeting again, we will.
