Kewanee Firefighters Local 513

Today, members of the Kewanee Police Department and Kewanee Fire Department had the pleasure of shopping for Christmas presents for children in the Project Now Head Start program.

We were happy to see that the Angel Tree at Walmart was completely empty, which really shows how generous our community is during the holiday season.

We were able to connect with Amber Patch, who shared a list of items some children had asked for that were not fully covered through the Angel Tree. Because of that, we were able to pick up even more gifts to help make Christmas a little brighter.

Thank you to everyone who helps make Kewanee such a caring community. Happy Holidays! 🎄❤️

We were happy to make this donation! We love helping our community. They’re still in need if anyone would like to donate to them!

It was another busy day at the food pantry, including a visit from some of Kewanee’s firefighters, dropping off a large donation of 245 pounds of frozen foods. We were also fortunate enough to have others drop off items. Most of them preferred to be anonymous but we feel you should be thanked all the same.
