Happy New Year,

The Plainfield Optimist Club welcomes many new people who will be receiving our monthly newsletter.   Families that participate in our programs and people in our community who serve the youth of Plainfield have been added to our email database.  The Club's main purpose is to serve our youth and assist other organizations, individuals, schools and businesses who also serve our youth.  The Plainfield Optimist Club is a not for profit organization and all the money that we collect goes toward serving the youth of Plainfield. 

Our newsletters will provide information about the programs that we sponsor and other community programs and the opportunities to participate in these worthwhile causes.  We hope you enjoy seeing the results of efforts and the joy and smiles that we bring to our young men and women that we serve.   Our members and volunteers are also inspired by being able to provide opportunities for our youth.   

We welcome all of our 100+ members to participate and anyone who wants to learn more about the Plainfield Optimist Club are welcome to join us.   I encourage you to to participate by either volunteering or by financial contributions.   We are rolling out a sponsorship program that will list the various opportunities to participate and will be described in more detail in our upcoming newsletters and the information will be on our website. 

We look forward to an Optimistic 2021 and working with our hundreds of volunteers and community leaders and businesses.
