The Kiwanis Club of Carrollton met on November 22, 2024, at the University of West Georgia Hubbard Dining Room in West Commons. Our club had the pleasure of hosting Duane Sohl and Josh Ingle with Gradick Communications. The presentation featured a history of radio visionaries that shaped the current power of radio which we enjoy today. The Gradick Communications family of stations include five commercial stations, one non-commercial station, and nine signals, and is reflective of local community radio at its best. Gradick is proud to support our local communities based on an added value business model which is customizable and scalable to local needs and priorities.
We are collecting donations to purchase food gift cards (Subway, Chick-fil-A, Wendy's etc.) to be given to local high school students with food insecurities during the holiday breaks from school. Our club has given over $1K in gift cards in prior years.
Clint Backstrom and Jenny Ingram are accepting cash donations, you can have an amount added to your quarterly dues bill or bring actual small denomination food gift cards. We have partnered with Chick-fil-a for several years to stretch our member donations. Please consider a donation now through December 6th. We will need to purchase the gift cards in time to be delivered to the schools in December.
Feel free to contact us if you want to help but will not be at the Friday meeting.
