NEXT POST – Some Help for Health Care Workers

Chelsea Kiwanis Club continues to support the community April 18, 2020 (Chelsea Update would like to thank Bob Milbrodt for the information in this story.) The Chelsea Kiwanis has continued meeting virtually for the last three weeks via Zoom. It is a great way to connect with members who had been unable to attend our regular meetings at the hospital. This week we have offered support for our health care workers at St. Joseph Mercy Chelsea. The hospital will run a Stress Free Zone for at least the next four weeks. The Zone will feature aromatherapy, snacks, and other stress relieving items. Gift cards for front line workers will also be purchased. The club has approved purchasing a subscription for Learning Ally, a program students can use via the internet to improve reading skills. South Meadows Elementary will determine eligibility for their students to participate. This should help the children now, when in-person learning is temporarily halted. Normally, Chelsea Kiwanis meets each Monday at 6:15 p.m. in the St. Joseph Mercy Chelsea Hospital cafeteria, and the speakers begin at about 6:45 p.m. Everyone is invited to the club’s meetings to enjoy our speakers and learn about Kiwanis.
