The 16th Annual Ice Cream Social Fundraiser benefiting Kate’s Kart will be June 22-23.
The Ice Cream Social is a day to celebrate the mission of Kate’s Kart. On “Go Eat Ice Cream Days,” they encourage you to support Kate’s Kart while purchasing ice cream at any of the partnering ice cream shops. Kate’s Kart volunteers will be on-site at 33 partnering ice cream shops located across Northeast Indiana, gifting kids goodie bags and new STEM-friendly books from the Don Wood Foundation (while supplies last), according to a news release from Kate’s Kart.
Kate's Kart is a not-for-profit organization that strives to provide a comforting diversion to hospitalized children through the gift of a new book. Over the last 16 years, the organization has grown to service 25 Northeast Indiana and Northwest Ohio hospitals via 41 book Karts. The team of 75 volunteers, along with the help of hospital staff, give away approximately 4,000 brand new books every month to hurting and scared children in the hospital. To date, over 435,000 books have brought smiles, distraction and hope to hospitalized children and their families.

The local 2024 participating ice cream shops are Ritter’s Frozen Custard, Warsaw; and Sugar Creek Meats and Treats, South Whitley.
