Early Bird Kiwanis donates to Kids in Motion
The Hannibal Early Birds Kiwanis Club recently made a small donation of several boxes of ice cream bars to Kids In Motion, a program supported by Douglass Community Services of Hannibal. The ice cream was leftovers from their most recent 4th of July fundraiser during National Tom Sawyer Days. Instead of letting the produce go to waste, club members decided to donate it to KIM as a reward for their hard work throughout the community over the summer months. Stephanie Himmel, director of Community Outreach Initiatives overseeing the KIM program, received the presentation from Larry Craig, a club member and the Chairman of Public Relations Committee. The Hannibal Early Bird Kiwanis Club is also a financial supporter of the KIM program each year, recognizing a program that supports kids and their growth process.

CRANFORD - A forward-thinking police officer, a generous Cranford-based business, and the Police Department’s Community Outreach Unit combined efforts to create and deploy “Sensory Communication Kits” in all primary radio cars in Cranford.
According to the release, Officer John Rattigan, a 16-year veteran of the force and paramedic, saw the value in providing officers with a kit comprised of self-soothing tools, ear protection, eye protection, and whiteboards to be used during crisis situations in which hypo and hyper-sensitivities may affect an officer’s interaction with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). After he assembled a prototype and pitched the idea to the organization, the Cranford Police Department created an additional seven kits to outfit police vehicles in the Patrol Division, Juvenile Bureau and Community Outreach Unit. One kit will also be housed inside police headquarters.
