Lincoln Kiwanis Donates to Local Schools

 

[October 03, 2020] 

Internationally, Kiwanis Clubs are known for “serving the children of the world” and the local Kiwanis Club of Lincoln takes that to heart with a passion to focus on the youth of Logan County. This year the club decided to donate $250 to each of the eleven schools in Logan County to be used towards supplies needed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

A representative from each school was invited to attend a lunch meeting for a formal presentation. When asked what the school planned to use the money on, many commented that the funds would go towards a variety of COVID related items such as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), cleaning supplies, air purifiers, plexi glass dividers, masks and hotspots for remote learning.

This school year has been challenging for everyone. The Kiwanis Club is honored to have the opportunity to help cover some of the additional expenses a pandemic creates. Thank you to all the school administrators, staff, teachers, and board members for working hard on creating a plan to keep students safe. Thank you to all the students and parents for managing the new guidelines.

Thank you to the following Superintendents/Principles for representing your school/district (pictured above): Hartsburg Emden School District, Mt. Pulaski School District, Lincoln District 27, New-Holland Middletown, Zion Lutheran-Mt. Pulaski, Olympia South, Chester-East Lincoln, and West Lincoln-Broadwell.
