JEFFERSON TOWNSHIP — A new Kiwanis Club is coming to Jefferson Township and is already making a difference for local children.
Bryan Lance, a charter member of the new Kiwanis Club of Jefferson Township, joined New Jersey District Governor of Kiwanis International Frank Cahill to donate winter jackets and bags of toys to Grace Rhinesmith, Director of Recreation for Jefferson Township, for distribution to children in need.
“This is exactly what Kiwanis is all about—seeing a need and taking action locally,” said Lance. “As we build the Kiwanis Club of Jefferson Township, our goal is to support children and families right here in our community.”
Lance is a graduate of Hopatcong High School and earned his Associate’s Degree from the County College of Morris. He is married to Tia Lance, and together they have a son, Griffin. He currently works at M&T Bank as a Senior Relationship Banker in Parsippany, where he helps individuals and families achieve their financial goals.
Frank Cahill emphasized the organization’s mission of service. “Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time,” Cahill said. “Starting a new club in Jefferson Township means more volunteers stepping up to help kids when it matters most.”
The new club will be sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Greater Rockaway, with Rockaway club president Valerie Kuglin serving as the initial club coach. The area Lt. Governor is Arlene Price.
