Floyd, Dot from the Exchange Club, and Kristin |
Yesterday,
Dot Maginot of the Naperville Exchange Club made a special visit to the HSP
office. In addition to receiving a tour of our facility, she dropped off an
extremely generous donation on behalf of the club which will go towards our Feed
the Kids program which helps local children and families. Through
Feed the Kids HSP supplies 100 families (approximately 400 children)
with 175 lbs of nutritious groceries during the summer months of June, July,
and August. The
Exchange Club has been a huge supporter of Feed the Kids since
2006.
HSP Staff and Friends at Ribfest 2013 |
Naperville Exchange Club runs Ribfest, which occurs annually
in Naperville on the Fourth of July weekend. Although Ribfest hosts an
excellent music lineup, fun family activities, and of course, lots of delicious
food, its ultimate goal is to raise money for local charities who work towards
improving child welfare. HSP is fortunate to be one of the charities whom the
Exchange Club chose to benefit. This year, Ribfest raised over a half million
dollars in total to distribute among the charities they support. HSP staff and friends participate in this
exciting event by volunteering each year. Thank you so much, Naperville
Exchange Club, for your generous gift! We look forward to another fun time at
Ribfest this summer.
