Donations Delivered to Area Schools
Continuing our mission to deliver tangible assistance to the area, we are proud to have delivered over $800 in donations to the Barneveld and Dodgeville school districts. We wanted to alleviate some holiday pressure from families by helping with the burden of negative school lunch balances, and with the help of our silent auction in November and private donors, we did just that.
Barneveld School District had already received a donation, so we instead used the funds allocated to add to the Giving Tree family gifts. We purchased Kwik Trip gift cards for each family, and paired that with waterpark passes to the Deer Valley Lodge Indoor Waterpark, who donated half of the passes to ensure we could provide a pass for every child and two adults on the Giving Tree.
Dodgeville School District was happy to accept a financial donation that will be used towards helping remove negative school lunch balances across the district.
We are working to establish a quarterly donation to each district to continue to serve the needs of area families year round. If you would like to make a tax-deductible contribution towards these donations, please click here and write ‘School Lunches’ in the dedication section.
We are so thankful to our community for the bids on the auction, the private donors, and the Village of Ridgeway for all of your support - everything we do is possible thanks to you!
