DJ is one of our co-founders for Kids for Vets. He grew up in LeClaire and now lives in Bettendorf with his wife and 2 kids. When he isn't working at 3M, you can find him with family. He will be either on the sideline cheering one of his kids on or helping his mom or running around town for Kids for Vets. We truly appreciate his hard working attitude.
Emma is one of co-founders for Kids for Vets and serves as our President. She is a mom, wife, and librarian and so much more. She is always on the move, from shuffling kids to and from events to getting lemonade stands around town. We are starting to think she might not sleep. She has a heart for Christ, kids and Veterans.
Christy has been serving on the Kids for Vets board as Secretary since 2021. When she isn't helping Kids for Vets stay organized she is often with her family, running as chauffeur, or homeschooling her three kids. She has been married to Tony for 16 years and together they serve in Children's Ministry at their church, Coram Deo. She has a heart for serving veterans and teaching the next generation to do the same. We're grateful to have her on Board.
Hannah joined our board early in 2023 and serves as our treasurer. She has been a wonderful addition to the board. She is our planner, nothing gets away from her watchful eye. When she isn't serving at Kids for Vets she is probably at home, work or serving at Coram Deo Bible Church. She is generous with her time and her gifts. We are blessed to have her.
Does empowering children to support veterans and their families through education, fundraising, and community engagement sound like something that speaks your language? Look no further - the Kids for Vets Board invites you to be a part of our mission!
What can you expect when you serve with us? Monthly 1 hour meeting, quarterly service event about 2-3 hours and then in warmer months about 1-2 hours per week. It is busier, getting supplies to our lemonade stands.
With your help we can inspire the next generation to serve our Veterans with honor and respect. If you are interested reach out to us via the contact us page
