Kunes is honored to sponsor the 2025 Teacher Appreciation Event, hosted by Lakeland Community Church and four partner churches, to recognize and celebrate the incredible educators across Walworth County. Taking place on Thursday, September 18, 2025, this special event is designed to encourage, uplift, and thank teachers, administrators, and support staff for their dedication and impact.
About the Event
- Event: Teacher Appreciation – “We See You”
- Date: Thursday, September 18, 2025 (with a second recognition on Sunday, September 21)
- Location: Lakeland Community Church, Lake Geneva, WI
This year, five churches are partnering to bless and honor educators with both a recognition moment during services and a high-value gift box for every attending teacher, administrator, and school staff member.
The goal: to provide 450 gift boxes valued at $75 each, totaling $33,000 in gifts, all funded by the generosity of local businesses and sponsors.
The Impact
Last year, Lakeland Church hosted the event independently, with nearly 280 teachers attending—almost 20% of total church attendance. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, as educators left feeling seen, supported, and celebrated. With five churches partnering this year, the impact is expected to grow significantly.
Why We Sponsor
At Kunes, we believe in celebrating the people who shape our future—our teachers. Their tireless efforts, compassion, and commitment to students inspire us all. Sponsoring this event is our way of saying thank you to the educators who give so much to their students, schools, and communities.
Join the Celebration
If you’re a teacher, administrator, or support staff member, this event is for you. Join us on September 18 or September 21 at Lakeland Community Church to be honored, celebrated, and gifted with a token of appreciation.
