Volapalooza

I was honored to serve as the MC for the very first Volapalooza held at the College of DuPage. Months of planning and organizing went into celebrating the joy of giving and the spirit of volunteerism. Giving DuPage, Community Memorial Foundation and the DuPage Foundation Foundation along with wonderful sponsors like Harris Bank awarded generous grants to some of DuPage County's non-profit organizations which are lifelines to so many in need of assistance. Micheal Jordan's mom, Deloris Jordan, spoke about the James R. Jordan Foundation and how they are helping needy schools improve and teaching families to become proactive with education. Wheaton’s own Dick and Florence Nogaj are authors of, “Don’t Retire, Get Inspired: One Couple’s Extraordinary Journey to Make a Difference.” And a "vocal," point of the evening was The West Towns Chorus.They are such sweet gentlemen and some have been with the singing barber shop style group for almost 40 years! Congratulations to the award winners as well as all those giving of themselves to help others.
