Programs to support community organizations begin April 29 for its St. Charles location and May 13 for its upcoming Wheaton location.

Kimberly Elam is passionate about making ice cream. Kimmer’s Ice Cream has been in business in St. Charles since 2011 and will open a store in Wheaton in a couple weeks.
In addition to opening a new storefront at 109 E. Front Street, she is launching a new way to support the community - Kimmer’s Kares.
Through Kimmer’s Kares, 10% of the qualifying sales will be given back to the schools and organizations. In order to qualify as a sale, customers will need to have a fundraising card present at the time of purchase.

“I am happy to help out the community in any way I can,” says Kimberly Elam, owner of Kimmer’s Ice Cream said in a written release. “Not only do participants get to enjoy a tasty treat, but it’s a great feeling knowing that a portion of the money spent is going to a good cause.”
Kimmer’s Ice Cream is known for Sparkle Cone, which is a sugar cone decorated in festive, colorful sugars and sprinkles that change with the seasons and holidays as well as for unique ice cream flavors. The opening of the Wheaton location will come with a new flavor - Kimmer’s Cream of Wheaton. On April 10, the store posted to its Facebook Page asking for customers’ favorite flavors.
