The Kiwanis Club of Middletown completed various service projects and funding efforts in the second quarter of 2021.
In April, the Kiwanis Club provided funding to help the Middletown Fire Company invest in an internal communications system for the new pumper that was purchased for the fire company by the Borough of Middletown. The new pumper should be in service in the next few months.
In May, the members of the club donated items to Caitlin's Smiles, a nonprofit organization that provides arts and crafts activities to children who have chronic or life-threatening illnesses. Kiwanians cut pages and covers for 20 large 50-page journals, four medium-size journals, and 10 small journals. They also assembled and decorated the journals, and they cut, assembled, and embellished 10 small and 11 medium-size sticker books. The items were boxed and delivered to Caitlin's Smiles along with two activity books.
On June 1, club secretary Laura Clark presented John Grayshaw, director of the Middletown Public Library, with a check to fund over 83% of the cost of the library's Summer Reading Program for children.
