PizzaFest

Fundraiser for the Kiwanis Foundation and ETHS Summer Camp Scholarships

Kids and ETHS ‘Kits to be will be the beneficiaries of Pizzafest,
Tuesday,Oct. 8, at Giordano’s.   The
Kiwanis Foundation and the ETHS Summer Sports Camp are joining together for an
all-you-can-eat pizza benefit.

“Each year Kiwanis awards over $10,000 in grants to
organizations serving children or with dedicated children’s programs, here in Evanston,” says Jim
Wolinski, president of the organization. Wolinski added, “ One of our members,
Chris Livatino, Director of Athletics at ETHS, was looking for a way to fund
scholarships for Summer Sports Camp at the high school.  We already work with the high school on
custom made mouth guards, funding scholarships for the  Evanston School of Wrestling and partnering
on the Earth Day project, so this seemed like a natural progression of our
relationship.”

Ticket costs are $15 per adults and $6 for children, if
purchased in advance with a $2 surcharge for tickets purchased that
evening.  Giordano’s is located at 1527 Chicago Ave.

Interested parties can purchase tickets from members of the
Kiwanis club or by contacting  Jim
Wolinski,  847-424-9518 or JamesWolinski@comcast.net or by
calling  the ETHS Athletics Office,
847-424-7370 or emailing livatinoc@eths.k12.il.us
