I am thrilled that Kari Galassi is throwing her hat into the ring for DuPage County Board. I have known Kari and her family for many years. I have always admired Kari’s deep involvement with her children and their many activities, while demonstrating a great capacity to get things done for her community.
In 2019, Kari led the campaign to pass the District 86 referendum, which dramatically improved the already crumbling school infrastructure, allowing our district to maintain the excellence for which it has been known. In 2021, Kari joined the fundraising committee for the Hinsdale Hospital Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). As the chairman of the Hinsdale Hospital Foundation Board, I was confident that Kari’s addition to our fundraising team would be instrumental in achieving our goals. Kari not only led nearly 50 tours through the hospital’s NICU to share with the community the need for an updated facility to provide our most vulnerable patients (pre-mature babies) with the highest quality of care, but she also raised nearly $700,000 in donations through an event she planned.
There is no better person to serve DuPage County than Kari Galassi. Kari and her running mate, Greg Hart, an experienced public servant, are passionate about the safety of our children and reducing crime in our community, focused on growing our economy and determined to maintain excellence in our schools. On June 28, please vote for Kari Galassi for DuPage County Board and Greg Hart for DuPage county chairman. — Jay Pollitt, Hinsdale
