We're a service club dedicated to serving the children of the world.

We have one major fund raiser each year. The bulk of the money we collect to support the club and our many charitable causes comes from our annual “Peanut Days” campaign.

However, it's not all we do, not by a long shot. Learn more about our projects and how you can get involved.

On May 31 we hosted a talk by Kane County Coroner Rob Russell. He clarified the process followed after a death, and his office has the "last word" (so to speak) on answering these questions about a death: who (positive ID), what, where, when and how. His office investigates whenever a death is suspicious or suddden. His staff includes 8 deputies and a chief deputy. His responses to our questions on drug deaths and other grim realities were most helpful. His is the only office in Illinois now accredited by the International Association of Coroners & Medical Examiners. Photo courtesy of Sara Johnson
