Well today was our co-service project with Alpha Phi Omega, a co-ed service fraternity! We had chapter members from Illinois College and Illinois State University show up and we got a LOT accomplished. One chalkboard is demolished, the walls are completely white, one door has one coat of paint, one coat of paint has been applied for the logo, and plenty more ideas are flowing for what the final look of the room will be like!We had 4 ISU APO members, ~6 IC APO members, and 7 IC CKI members. These were not the numbers we were told when we were planning projects, but we still got a lot accomplished.
This goes right back to the love that CKI has for helping the children in our community. I hear great things about reading days, carnivals, safety checks, and dressing like the Easter bunny and I just think, "What would the children (or the community) be like without CKI?" Think about it and the impacts you make on children. Think...... think..... wow. All of those service experiences that you had wouldn't have happened with you... OR that child. Where would that child be right now? Makes you think... makes you wonder... makes you want to do a service project, right?
