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.
