Kim Allgood, Chicago, IL . . . My son is a freshman and a member of the ATO fraternity. He is loving his UNL experience (he made the Deans List in the College of Business), and we have fallen in love with Lincoln. We are in the Chicago area, so not local, but I love visiting the college. I’m a stay at home mom. I’ve been a “professional” volunteer since my son (Nathan) started preschool. I’ve fundraised for every school he’s ever attended , raising several hundred thousand dollars over the years. I’ve also been PTO president, led class trips to Springfield IL and Washington DC, run our youth baseball program, overseeing 1,000 boys, their parents and hundreds of coaches for 7 years. I also have a daughter who is in 8th grade. I’ve done the same fundraising and class trips with her in preschool, elementary, and middle school . I also coached her softball team for 7 (long) years, from tball thru 12u pitch. She now plays club volleyball and club soccer, so my coaching days are over.
