Number 1 Service Club

At a recent club meeting, Envoy Scott Hurula of the Joliet Salvation Army presented Club President, John Davis with a certificate for the club. He expressed his gratitued to the club on behalf of the thousands who will benefit from our efforts during the 2022 Red Kettle Christmas Campaign. He went on to state:

“On Saturday, December 17th many Kiwanians braved the most frigid conditions to ring the bell at two doors of the Joliet Walmart for the whole  day. The total raised was $2,315.20! Kiwanians Roman Okrei and Julie McDermid  partnered to ring the bell at multiple locations and times throughout the campaign and together raised $1,810.53! In addition, Kiwanian Aleta Finney Pavnica organized bellringing at the Rialto Theater on multiple occasions during the campaign and raised a total of $2,303.61. The grand total for the Kiwanis Club of Joliet amounts to $6,429.34!

This ranks the Kiwanis Club of Joliet as the Number 1 Service Club partner for 2022 by raising more than 7% of the entire campaign total!”

Thanks to all of the members who supported the campaign and special thanks to Roman, Julie and Aleta!
