HERMISTON
Accounts set up to help raise money for longtime Hermiston volunteer
Laurie Ball-Kiser
buried in medical bills
By TAMMY MALGESINI
East Oregonian
Laurie Ball-Kiser has given of
her time, talents and resources for
more than 40 years. The Herm-
iston woman is now in need of
help from the community.
“She has been a huge part of the
community,” said Karen Snyder.
“We are hoping people will step
up and help her.”
Snyder, who helped set up a
benefit account for Ball-Kiser,
said a couple of strokes and other
health problems have resulted
in a pile of medical bills. While
insurance paid a portion of the
costs, Ball-Kiser and her husband,
Joe, are facing more than $20,000
in medical debt.
A substitute teacher in Herm-
iston and Umatilla schools for
more than 30 years, Ball-Kiser
also is the driving force behind the
Community Fellowship Dinner
in Hermiston. Coordinating the
free meals on Thanksgiving and
Christmas, Ball-Kiser is a firm
believer that people should be able
to share a nice holiday meal with
others.
Over the years, Ball-Kiser
has been recognized for her
efforts — in 2014, she received
the Christmas Spirit Award from
the Good Shepherd Community
Health Foundation and then-
mayor Bob Severson recognized
Ball-Kiser with the Mayor’s
Award during the 2009 Hermiston
Chamber Distinguished Citizens
Awards Banquet.
Ball-Kiser is always quick to
point out that the twice-yearly
meals are the result of a lot of
people pitching in. While she
coordinates the effort, it wouldn’t
be possible about the hundreds of
volunteers that help.
“Without the community
involvement, we couldn’t continue
to provide a place for people to
share a meal with others,” she said
in a past interview with the East
Oregonian. “It’s truly a blessing
to be able to do this.”
People can provide financial
support to Ball-Kiser in three
ways:
•A GoFundMe link at www.
gofundme.com/laurie-ballkis-
er-benefit-fund
•Make a donation by check
or cash via the Laurie Ball-Kiser
Benefit Fund at Columbia River
Bank, 1033 S. Highway 395,
Hermiston.
•Drop off cash or checks
made out to the Laurie Ball-Kiser
Benefit Fund at the Chuckwagon
Cafe, 81027 N. Highway 395,
Hermiston.
For more information, contact
Snyder at karenjeansnyder@
charter.net.

COMMUNITY BRIEFS
PORTLAND — People
from all backgrounds and
levels of experience, who
are interested in facilitating
conversations to get people
talking, listening and
connecting to one another,
are encouraged to contact
Oregon Humanities.
The Conversation Project
brings Oregonians together
to talk — across differences,
beliefs and backgrounds
— about important and
challenging issues and
ideas. Facilitators are
provided training by Oregon
Humanities. The goal is to
connect people to discuss,
while not pushing a specific
agenda.
Conversation leaders
receive a $250 honorarium,
mileage reimbursement
and a meal stipend for each
program they facilitate.
Additional information,
HERMISTON — Area
youths are invited to register
for the upcoming Children’s
Community Theater.
Sponsored by Hermiston
Desert Arts Council, the
class will present “The
Poisoned Apple.” When
Queen Durnella invites
world leaders to a Peace
Conference, her intent is
to beguile them with her
beauty. Only Snow White’s
beauty stands in her way
— and so begins the story
behind the famous tale by
the Brothers Grimm.
Youths ages 9-18 are
invited to participate.
The program runs from
Feb. 28 through May 12.
Rehearsals are Tuesday and
Wednesdays from 5:15-7:15
p.m. at the Hermiston
Conference Center, 415 S.
Highway 395.
The cost is $50 for
residents of Hermiston
and $63 for non-residents.
The registration deadline is
Friday, Feb. 24.
To register, call 541-667-
5018.
