Volunteer/Donor Highlight

Thank you to everyone who contributed towards these Easter baskets! We are so pleased to have such a supportive community and are looking forward to distributing these awesome baskets.

Thank you to all who participated from the company as well as the outside donors in our community. The 250 families who use the food shelf each month are grateful for your gifts. Over $12,000 and 2,300 lbs of food were collected and split between the Waconia and Norwood Young America food shelves by Waconia Manufacturing!

Thank you, Soltis Chiropractic, for your continued support and donations to the Waconia United Food Shelf! This year’s donation of $5,300 was awesome. This donation brings their total contribution over the past years to $14,000!

Thanks to Doug Sayles and Peter Potter for their effort in fund raising for the Waconia United Food Shelf. They brought in 575 pounds of food and $1265 in cash donations! What great role models for their students! Thanks to the community for supporting their efforts.

Once again we are the benefactors of our generous community! The Stuff-a-Truck event organized by Mackenthun’s and supported by all of the schools and community members, delivered 8,372 pounds of food to the Waconia food shelf Friday afternoon! Thanks to Mackenthun employees, some community members and basketball and soccer players from Crown College for helping unload the semi!

Thanks to Mayer Lutheran seniors, Maddie, Morgan, Brenna, Parit, and Dain for their volunteer service in October.
