John Blondell
2023 President
Greetings fellow Nobles. I am Noble John Blondell from Ainad Shriners in East St. Louis, Illinois. It is a privilege to serve as the 1st Vice President for 2022. I served as our temple’s fundraising coordinator for five years, 2014 – 2018. While serving as the fundraising coordinator my duties varied with the different temple fundraisers such as our bass tournament, dinner auction, paper sales for our hospital transportation fund, partner program and Shriners Circus. Also, I helped our members with their existing fundraisers as well as new events by promoting their events with traditional advertising, email marketing and social media. In addition to working with the Ainad Nobility I worked with community organizations that wanted to fundraise for Shriners Hospitals for Children in St. Louis. I served as President in our Hospital Unit in 2016 as well as the Ceremonial Cast secretary/treasurer from 2015 to 2018. I am a member of Douglas Lodge #361 in Mascoutah, Illinois.
In my professional life I have been a consultant in the telecommunications construction industry for 20 years. Ever since my youth, whether being a Boy Scout or DeMolay, there has been no fundraiser which seemed so large or small no matter the event. It is an honor to serve with the other SFA officers.
Yours in the Faith,
John Blondell
SFA 1st Vice President
