Preventing COVID-19 Severe Illness
COVID-19 vaccines continue to offer the best

and 99 percent of related hospitalizations and
deaths since December of 2020 have occurred in
residents who are not fully vaccinated. The
DuPage County Health Department is again
urging eligible residents, aged 12 years and older,
to get vaccinated against COVID-19 to protect
themselves, their loved ones, and their
community. Link: full news release

Woodridge officially applied to become a
chartered service organization. The club’s mission
is to engage in community service projects and
raise money to help children in the Woodridge
area and the world.
Club members work or live in Woodridge and
have a strong desire to help children in the
community through service projects and by
assisting and supporting other organizations with
similar goals. In addition, the Woodridge Kiwanis
sponsors the Key Club at Downers Grove South
High School and helps the SEASPAR Aktion Club. For more information about the Kiwanis Club of
Woodridge, and for membership information, please visit the Woodridge Kiwanis website and
