(Rock Island, IL)—Members of Chapter 20003 of Royal Neighbors of America, Rock Island, enjoy working for a good cause. In their eyes, the Children’s Therapy Center in Moline is one of the best. The chapter raised $2,000 by hosting a Taco Tuesday at Mulligan’s Valley Pub, Coal Valley. Through the Royal Neighbors Matching Funds Program, the Royal Neighbors Home Office matched $1,000, bringing the total to $3,000.
W. K. Juncker from the therapy center is shown at left as he accepted the donation from Luke Rushing, Chapter 20003 Event Planner. All chapter fund-raisers in 2010 will be for the center, with the goal of raising $5,000. Previous events have included a wine-tasting and a car wash.
