Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Legacy Inspires Community Service Through Zakat Foundation of America “Everybody can be great because everybody can serve.”

- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Kings’ commitment to service and assisting others, Zakat Foundation of America (ZFA) is launching its 11th annual service week. Working in six states and online, the organization anticipates impacting 6,000 individuals. While Zakat Foundation of America is known for its international humanitarian work in over 40 countries, it also commits to serving its neighbors throughout the United States.

For Martin Luther King Jr. Week, the Zakat Foundation of America will use its local U.S. offices to reach out to underserved communities, provide them with winter and essential necessities, and address basic needs. The goal is to provide a space for the entire community through service and fulfilling one another’s needs.

A core tenet of the organization is “humanity above all,” and beneficiaries are always treated with dignity, respect, and care. The list of events can be found below, with highlights including tutoring, blanket distributions, crafting events, winter gear/clothing distribution, grocery distribution, and hot meals being served.

In each community, ZFA works alongside local partners, including local law enforcement, mosques, assisted living homes, Ronald McDonald houses, and schools.

Beyond impacting those in need, MLK Service Week allows volunteers, especially youth, to give back to their communities. The goal is for volunteers to be encouraged to take civic responsibility and actively improve their communities.

Any person wishing to volunteer or receive assistance may

contact Nayma Kose, Outreach & Community Engagement Director, at nayma@zakat.org. “We are so excited to empower our local communities to help serve our under-resourced neighbors”, Kose stated, “Bringing everyone together in the spirit of service celebrates the best parts of ourselves”.

The organization strives to support recovery and development in all its forms, aligning with the UN’s 17 Goals for Sustainable Development. Zakat Foundation of America has been featured in the press, including CNN Max, Fox News, WGN, ABC, and NBC. Media, including photos and videos, are available on the website and social media. Additional media requests or interview requests can be submitted to lindsey.b@zakat.org.

Founded in 2001, Zakat Foundation of America is a 501(c)3 NGO that helps generous and caring people reach out to those in need. Zakat Foundation of America’s mission is to address immediate needs and ensure the selfreliance of the poorest people around the world. Zakat Foundation of America conducts humanitarian assistance programs in more than 40 countries on five continents.

Giannoulias Warns Illinoisans of Scammers Selling Used Vehicles Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias is warning Illinoisans shopping for a used vehicle to exercise caution and employ best-practices amid a rise in fraudulent vehicle purchases across the state.

The Secretary of State’s office has uncovered a growing number of fraudulent sales from out-of-state businesses licensed as wholesale dealers that illegally falsify the mileage shown on a used vehicle’s title and odometer to defraud car buyers.

Giannoulias’ warning comes on the heels of an Illinois car buyer, who thought they purchased a used vehicle from a wholesale dealer with 80,000 miles, only to find out the seller rolled back the odometer from over 200,000 miles and deliberately failed to disclose major mechanical problems with the car.

“Nightmare stories like this one is one of the worst-case scenarios when purchasing a used car,” Giannoulias said.

“In many cases, the purchaser is in a desperate financial situation or needs a car fast, which leads them to overlook red flags and fail to do their due diligence.”

The wholesale car dealer scam is a deceptive practice in which someone licensed in other states to sell vehicles exclusively to dealers, instead poses as a private vehicle owner. Vehicles are often sold in Illinois through online advertisements and social media channels at seemingly low prices. In many cases, these vehicles have serious mechanical issues or are missing the ownership documents required to title and register the vehicle. By the time the buyer discovers the problem, the wholesaler is long gone.

Odometer fraud across the country is rising each year.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that more than 450,000 vehicles are sold annually with false odometer readings causing consumers to lose over $1 billion annually. In December, Carfax ranked Illinois the fifth highest state in the nation with 79,000 cars discovered with rolled-back odometers.

With older vehicles, odometers scammers roll back odometers manually; however, newer vehicles have digital odometers that can be altered by removing or manipulating a car’s circuit board, deceiving buyers into believing a car has a lower mileage that would sell for a higher price.

“My office is continuing to work with law enforcement and to educate the public to identify these scammers before they take advantage of customers,” Giannoulias added.

“It’s imperative that buyers do their homework and know the signs before it is too late.”

To best protect yourself against fraudsters, Giannoulias recommends the following when buying from an individual seller: 1. When buying from an individual, always get the properly signed title at the time of purchase.

2. Make sure the seller owns the vehicle.

3. If there is a lien on the vehicle, make sure it is paid off before taking ownership.

4. Look for evidence of erasing or other tampering with the title documents.

5. Make sure the wear and tear on the vehicle appears to match its age and mileage.

6. Closely examine the vehicle history report on Carfax, AutoCheck or the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) and compare the report to the name on the title, title number, VIN number, issue date and odometer reading. Compare the VIN on the vehicle’s dashboard against the title and history report.

7. Have the vehicle inspected by an automotive professional.

8. Never buy a previously junked vehicle, meaning the vehicle is inoperable, wrecked or dismantled. You cannot register the vehicle in Illinois and it cannot be rebuilt, no matter what it looks like.

9. If you believe you are buying from an individual seller, but the last assigned owner looks like a dealer name, do not buy it. You may have trouble registering the vehicle and you may pay additional taxes.

For more information, visit ilsos.gov and scroll down to Publications & Forms where, under the Law Enforcement section, you can find informational forms on odometer fraud and buying or selling a vehicle. If you believe you are a victim of odometer fraud or other vehicle-related fraud, contact your local police department.

Motivation and success are closely connected. Achieving success often requires hard work, a deep desire, and strong determination. Confidence plays an important role in this process. It’s the strength you need to pursue your goals and belief in your abilities, plans, and potential for success. Consistency is also important in building discipline to work frequently toward your objectives.

Commitment is the 3rd “C” word that ties it all together. It pushes you to take decisive action and stay on track. Here’s how having confidence while being consistent and committing to your plans can increase your motivation and lead you to success.

First, confidence means believing in yourself and your abilities. It involves knowing, thinking, and acting like you can overcome challenges and reach your goals. Confidence is knowing that you can do it! When you have confidence in yourself, abilities, and purpose, you are more likely to take risks, try new things, and not give up.

Confidence helps you stay motivated even when things are tough or impossible. The Bible says, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).

Second, consistency means working on your goals and plans regularly, even when you don’t want to. Also, you must be consistent and stick with your plans versus being wishywashy with your beliefs. Don’t allow unfounded reasons to discourage you from continually working towards your goals. For example, financially, deposit consistently in your savings weekly.

For health goals, consistently workout on a schedule weekly for a determined time. Spiritually, join a church and bible study to consistently work on increasing your knowledge of God and the Bible.

Consistently stick with your decisions unless better opportunities exist. Even small consistent steady steps can lead to

Speaking Of Seniors

Incompetence at Chicago Based Company WOODROW WILCOX

On December 26, 2024, I wrote a letter to the Chicago office of an insurance company to chastise someone for not doing what was requested.

With some editing to protect the privacy of our client and others, here is the letter.

On December 18, 2024, [our client] sat in my office while we made phone calls together. One of the phone calls was to your line at your firm – XXXX XXXXXX. In that phone call, the client and I told you that your firm goofed on the effective date of the [XXXX] ID card for which we wanted your records corrected. And that we wanted the Policy Schedule Sheet showing the correct effective date and a sheet showing the policy cancellation date. Your firm goofed again by not sending what was requested! Instead, your firm wasted your time and time and paper at our office by NOT faxing what was requested. You faxed 206 pages of information about the policy as though you were training someone to sell your policy.

The one page that stated “Evidence of Coverage” had an incorrect effective date and an incorrect cancellation date according to our phone conversation with the representative. In the phone

conversation, I believe we agreed that the correct effective date of the policy was 02/01/2024. Why did you compound the client’s problem by sending something other than the items requested? Who at your firm needs to be trained again?

Please, have a person who knows what to do send the information to our client or to our firm promptly. In other words, do what was requested.

All the help that I am giving the client is FREE OF CHARGE. This insurance agency helps all our clients when there is a mix up about a claims charge or another insurance company’s mistake that could harm our client financially. If your insurance agent or agency does not give this high level of service, shouldn’t you switch to another insurance agency that does?

Our firm does.

Note: Woodrow Wilcox is the senior medical bill case worker at Senior Care Insurance Services in Merrillville, Indiana. He has helped clients of that firm save over three million dollars by fighting mistakes and/or fraud in the Medicare medical billing system.

Also, Wilcox wrote the book SOLVING MEDICARE PROBLEM$ which is available from book stores or online.

big success.

Third, commitment holds everything together. Commitment means being dedicated to your purpose by sticking with your goals, no matter what. It fuels your dedication to follow your goals despite potential setbacks or distractions.

A person is more likely to succeed if they stay focused and don’t give up.

Committing reinforces resilience, which is needed to push through difficulties and see your plans to completion.

The three C’s -confidence, consistency, and commitment- are all connected and work together to achieve success and keep you motivated to reach your goals.

Confidence gives you the courage to set goals and then act on them. Consistency keeps you on track and builds momentum.

Commitment keeps you focused so you don’t give up. The 3 C’s can apply to all areas of your life- personal, physical, financial, and spiritual.

They help in your personal life by improving your relationships and building self-esteem. Physically, you can set goals to stay healthy and active. Financially, it can help you save, invest, and manage your money wisely. Spiritually, by reading the bible consistently and committing to deepen your faith, you can have a deeper, closer relationship with God. Confidence, consistency, and commitment can help you succeed in any area of your life.

Motivation and success are influenced by your actions. If you’re confident in your abilities and yourself, consistently working towards your goals, and committing to succeed when challenges arise, you are more likely to reach and achieve your goals. Remember to always believe in yourself, stay steady in your actions, and remain dedicated to your plans. If you do, this will increase your motivation and chances of success because all things are possible. Y? Why Not! Like us on Facebook https://www. facebook.com/ywhynotshow/

CATHY & JIM HIGGINS Question: We were told by a friend to get a Radon test when we find our next home. We never heard of this. Is this something most buyers do?

Answer: Yes, you should have it done as part of your inspection, and No, most buyer do not have the home checked for Radon during the home inspection process. Radon is a radioactive gas that is colorless, odorless and tasteless and is impossible to detect without the use of sensitive test equipment. Radon is a naturally occurring gas produced by the breakdown of Uranium in soil, water and rock. When allowed to accumulate to high levels, it can be hazardous to long term health. The Surgeon General has warned that Radon is the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. Only cigarette smoking causes more

$

lung cancer deaths. The EPA presently suggests that corrective actions should be taken to reduce Radon levels in your home if measured over the long term (usually 48 hours) at 4.0 PCi/l or greater.

The removal of radon is generally not a huge cost. In fact, it may be a bargain if it does indeed prevent lung cancer from excessive Radon exposure. Google ‘Radon’ for additional information.

Heart Smart JOSH BOOTSMA In 1096, a Jewish poet from Germany named Meir Ben Isaac Nehorai penned a beautiful poem about the love of God. Fast forward hundreds of years, and the same poem appeared written on the cell wall of an insane asylum. It’s unknown who the patient was who wrote it.

In 1917, California businessman Frederick M. Lehman lost his business and fell on hard times, working a job packaging oranges and lemons to make ends meet. Despite his circumstances, Lehman was moved one Sunday morning by the reality of God’s love for him. He began to write song lyrics during his breaks at work. He wrote two lyrics and a chorus before remembering the words passed down to him, written on an asylum wall. The poem became his third verse.

Over one hundred years later, the beloved hymn “The Love of God” includes words over 1,000 years old that tell of the deep love of our Father. The beautiful third verse is below: Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made; were every stalk on earth a quill, and everyone a scribe by trade; to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry; nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky.

As you read this paper right now, think about how many words and how much ink has been used to make it. Think about the talented people that put it together. If this paper were the size of the sky, and the printer had a vat of ink the size of the ocean, and all of us were contributing writers, it still wouldn’t be enough to fully express the love of God. Has the love of God for you awed you the way it should?

Have you made the love of God your own?

Financial Advice Column

Financial considerations when changing jobs SUBMITTED BY PATRICK ZAMKIN Are you changing jobs soon? If so, you’ll obviously be interested in your new salary — but you’ll also want to look at other financial considerations.

Here are some of the most important ones: • 401(k) — If you had a 401(k) plan through your previous employer, you’ll need to decide what to do with it once you’ve joined a new employer. You could just cash it out, but you’d pay taxes and possible penalties. You could leave your 401(k) with your previous employer, if allowed, and if you have been happy with your plan’s performance. Or you could move your 401(k) into your new employer’s plan, which might be a good choice if the new plan has lower fees and attractive investment options. You’d also want to ask whether the new employer offers matching contributions. Finally, you could roll over your old 401(k) into a traditional IRA, which would give you more investment choices.

• HSA/FSA — If your new employer offers a health savings account (HSA) as part of a highdeductible health plan, you may want to take advantage of it. Your contributions are made with pretax dollars, your earnings generally grow tax deferred and your withdrawals are tax free, as long as they’re used for qualified medical expenses. Plus, you can carry unused funds through retirement, when you can still use them for qualified medical expenses. Your employer might also offer a flexible spending account (FSA), which can pay for a variety of health care costs, such as deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance. Generally, if you’re contributing to an HSA, you can’t fund an FSA in the same year, except for a limited purpose FSA. • Waiting period for health benefits — You’ll want to ask your new employer if there’s a waiting eligibility period to enroll in its benefits plan — health insurance, dental, vision, and so on. If so, you may need to get COBRA coverage for a few months to stay in your old plan, unless you can be added to a spouse’s plan. When you go on your new employer’s health care plan, make sure you know what it covers.

Depending on your situation, you might want to add supplemental health insurance.

• Life insurance — When you leave a job, your employersponsored life insurance will end, unless you have the option to convert your group term life policy into an individual permanent cash value policy. So, you’ll want to be sure your new employer offers at least the same insurance coverage as your old one. But you should also determine whether the group policy offered by your employer is sufficient for your needs.

Depending on several factors, such as your income, spouse’s income and family size, you may need to supplement your employer’s policy with an individual term life insurance policy.

• Other benefits — Review your new employer’s benefits package carefully to see what’s available.

Many employers offer tuition reimbursement for their employees, and some even provide college planning assistance for employees’ children. For example, your employer might offer matching contributions to a tax-advantaged 529 education saving plan, which can be used for college, some K-12 expenses and some trade/vocational school programs.

Changing jobs can provide you with an opportunity to expand your career, learn new skills and broaden your social network. And it can certainly be financially rewarding, too — so make sure you know all the benefits involved.

Donald “Don” Reuben Steele, age 69, of Thornton, IL, passed away on Monday, January 13, 2025. Beloved husband of Gayle Steele, nee Tatgenhorst. Loving father of Megan (John) Nicholson, Sean Steele, and Derek Steele. Proud grandfather of Jorie (Jason) Witcher, Dakoda Steele, Savanna Steele, Kennedy Nicholson, Wesley Nicholson, and Wyatt Nicholson. Greatgrandfather of Aubrianna Witcher and Zeppelin Witcher. Dear brother of Karen (Rod) Householder, Susan Steele, Hillary Steele, late Gregory (Lucy) Steele, and Ronald Steele. Brother-in-law of Judy (Jason) Gay, Joan (Louis) Pasquesi, Guy Tatgenhorst.

Beloved extended family member of Jessica and Greg Ortiz and family. Uncle to several precious nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by his parents Reuben Steele and JoAnne (Keene) Quick and stepfather Randy Quick.

From the beginning, Don had a knack for being in charge. From being the oldest of his siblings to becoming Vice President of Bank One Financial Services, to being President and CEO of several of his own companies. Don had a heart for serving others through his leadership.

At the age of 17, Don joined the United States Navy during the Vietnam War. He traveled on the USS Denver LPD 9 which took

January 22, 2025

him to several places along the South China Sea. He met the love of his life, Gayle Tatgenhorst, when he asked her to dance one Friday night in June of 1981.

On November 6, 1982, Don and Gayle married at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Thornton, IL. Gayle and Don lived in several communities over their 42 wonderful years of marriage, one of those being Zionville, IN. There, Don was a member of Advent Lutheran Church. Don enjoyed serving on many committees at Advent and had fond memories of his time there.

Don’s happiest memories involved his family. He was always going out of his way to entertain and bring joy to those he loved. Don enjoyed family trips to places like Florida and the Wisconsin Dells with his beloved grandkids, nieces, and nephews.

He anticipated every opportunity to visit Logansport, IN to be with his littlest grandchildren at the farm and the chance to make memories over dinner with his big grandkids.

Don loved making others smile and laugh.

He will forever be remembered as Uncle Ding Dong and our beloved Papa Don. Though his later years were filled with suffering and pain, Don felt the grace and mercy of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and had the hope of Heaven. Because of this, his family looks forward to the day that they are together in paradise and finds comfort knowing Don is fully healed in the arms of Jesus.

A Celebration of Life will be held for close friends and family at a later date. Donations in memory of Don can be made to Advent Lutheran Church of Zionsville, IN, Grace Lutheran Church of Western Springs, IL, or the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Helen B. Powers, nee Onak, age 90, of Munster, IN, formerly of Harvey, IL, passed away peacefully on Sunday, January 12, 2025.

Helen was born into a large family, the youngest of nine kids.

As a child she swam in “the clay hole,” played marbles, hop scotch and jump rope. She graduated high school and enjoyed a satisfying career in the insurance business working “downtown” (Chicago), until settling down to family life.

In 1959 she married Gracson Powers and together they raised six children.

Helen and all the aunts and uncles created lasting memories for the kids focused on rites of passage and holidays birthday parties, card parties, picnics at the woods - all involving playful fun and laughter.

Polish Christmas Eve traditions have been

passed down to the next generation but nothing can match the magic of Santa’s visit to Grandma Onak’s basement! Family activities included swimming at the Harvey pool, downhill skiing, and family vacations camping all over the country with their VW bus in the ‘70s and 80s.

Those were great times!

Helen returned to work as an administrative assistant and retired proudly from Ingalls Memorial Hospital where she worked for the CEO of behavioral health. After 43 years of marriage, she was widowed, and moved to Munster, Indiana.

She took great personal satisfaction in her house and yard, appreciating neighbors she liked and trusted.

Her senior years were active and fun. She always had a reason to get dressed and get out of the house. Church and lunch at Gabe’s, vacations with the adult kids and the grandkids, shopping, gardening, she kept busy! Overnight casino trips with “the girls” continued up until the end!

Helen is survived by her children Natalie (Patrick) Dempsey, Jackie (Ken Hazel) Powers, John (Mary) Powers, and Eric Powers; her grandchildren Jeffrey, Brendan, Jacob, Julia, Melanie, Cora, Max, Leo, and Zac; her sisters-in-law Jean Onak and Eleanor Onak; her best friend Jo Snow, and many nieces and nephews.

There is a big welcoming committee in Heaven for Helen! She outlived all known family members, achieving her goal of making it to 90. She is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Gracson, her five brothers and three sisters, her parents Jacob and Mary Onak, her son Paul Powers, her daughter Grace Powers, her granddaughter Rachel Powers, and several nieces and nephews.

Visitation will be Thursday, January 16, 2025 from 9:00 a.m. until the time of the funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m. directly at Lord of Mercy/ St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, 15746 Union Ave, Harvey, IL. Memorial contributions may be given to the Cancer Resource Center (926 Ridge Rd, Munster, IN 46321) or Lord of Mercy/St. John the Baptist Church.

Arrangements entrusted to Smits Funeral Home.

ACS Annual Report: Cancer Mortality Continues to Drop Despite Rising Incidence in Women; Rates of New Diagnoses Under 65 Higher in Women Than Men The American Cancer Society (ACS) today released Cancer Statistics, 2025, the organization’s annual report on cancer facts and trends. The new findings show the cancer mortality rate declined by 34% from 1991 to 2022 in the United States, averting approximately 4.5 million deaths.

However, this steady progress is jeopardized by increasing incidence for many cancer types, especially among women and younger adults, shifting the burden of disease. For example, incidence rates in women 50-64 years of age have surpassed those in men, and rates in women under 50 are now 82% higher than their male counterparts, up from 51% in 2002. This pattern includes lung cancer, which is now higher in women than in men among people younger than 65 years. These important findings are published today in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, alongside its consumer-friendly companion, Cancer Facts & Figures 2025, available on cancer.org.

“Continued reductions in cancer mortality because of drops in smoking, better treatment, and earlier detection is certainly great news,” said Rebecca Siegel, senior scientific director, surveillance research at the American Cancer Society and lead author of the report. “However, this progress is tempered by rising incidence in young and middle-aged women, who are often the family caregivers, and a shifting cancer burden from men to women, harkening back to the early 1900s when cancer was more common in women.”

Overall, in 2025, there will be an estimated 2,041,910 new cancer diagnoses in the U.S. (5,600 each day) and 618,120 cancer deaths.

In addition to projecting the contemporary cancer burden, ACS researchers compiled the most recent findings on population-based cancer occurrence and outcomes using incidence data collected by central cancer registries (through 2021) and mortality data collected by the National Center for Health Statistics (through 2022).

The report also highlights lagging progress against pancreatic cancer, which is the third leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. Both incidence and mortality rates are increasing, and the five-year survival rate is just 8% for the 9 out of 10 people diagnosed with pancreatic exocrine tumors.

“With a critical need to do better, ACS is constantly working to help advance efforts to aid in the discovery of new treatments for cancer patients and care for survivors,” explained Dr. William Dahut, chief scientific officer at the American Cancer Society. “As the largest nongovernment, non-profit funding source of cancer research in the U.S., we are currently financing more than $450 million in grants to scientists.

Our goal is to find answers that help save lives.”

Other highlights from the report include: • Despite overall declines in cancer mortality, death rates are increasing for cancers of the oral cavity, pancreas, uterine corpus, and liver (female).

• Additionally, alarming inequalities in cancer mortality persist, with rates in Native American people 2-3 times higher than White people for kidney, liver, stomach, and cervical cancers. Black people are twice as likely to die of prostate, stomach, and uterine corpus cancers compared to White people and 50% more likely to die from cervical cancer, which is preventable.

• Incidence rates continue to climb for common cancers, including breast (female), prostate (steepest increase at 3% per year from 2014-2021), pancreatic, uterine corpus, melanoma (female), liver (female), and oral cancers associated with the human papillomavirus.

• The rate of new diagnoses of colorectal cancer in men and women younger than 65 years of age and cervical cancer in women (30-44 years of age) has also increased. Notably, lung cancer incidence in women under 65 years of age surpassed men for the first time in 2021 (15.7 versus 15.4 per 100,000 people).

• Cancer incidence in children (14 years of age and younger) declined in recent years after decades of increase but continued to rise among adolescents (ages 15-19 years). Mortality rates have dropped by 70% in children and by 63% in adolescents since 1970, largely because of improved treatment for leukemia.

“Progress against cancer continues to be hampered by striking, wide static disparities for many racial and ethnic groups,” said Dr. Ahmedin Jemal, senior vice president, surveillance and health equity science at the American Cancer Society and senior author of the study.

“Coordinated and concerted efforts by healthcare systems, providers, and policymakers are essential to help end discrimination and inequality to deliver optimal cancer care to all populations.”

“This report underscores the need to increase investment in both cancer treatment and care, including critical screening programs, especially for underserved groups of patients and survivors,” said Dr. Wayne A. I. Frederick, interim chief executive officer of the American Cancer Society and the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN). “We also must address these shifts in cancer incidence, mainly among women, and illuminate priority areas where mortality rates are rising.”

Other ACS authors participating in this study include Tyler Kratzer, Angela Giaquinto, and Dr. Hyuna Sung.
