The company’s annual Week of Giving is here and it’s a great opportunity for you to give back and support one of four eligible charitable organizations through payroll deduction (Helping Hand Donation) or a separate any-amount donation. These organizations have an outstanding reputation of maximizing the contributions they receive to support their stated objectives. The four charities are:
The Food Bank of Central and Northeast Missouri- The Food Bank for Central & Northeast Missouri is a regional disaster and hunger relief network that acquires and distributes millions of pounds of food annually to partner agencies across a 32-county area in Missouri.
Children’s Miracle Network at MU Children’s Hospital – MU Children’s Hospital is one of 170 CMN Hospitals and all proceeds stay local to help sick and injured children receive services and care they deserve. MU Children’s Hospital provides services to 14 counties in Missouri.
Central Missouri Foster Care and Adoption Association – The mission of the Central Missouri Foster Care and Adoption Association is to educate, support, and advocate for foster and adoptive children, youth, and families in central Missouri. This organization provides these services across a 13-county area in Missouri.
Freedom Service Dogs (Nationwide) – Freedom Service Dogs (FSD) “unleashes” (pun intended) the potential of dogs by transforming them into custom-trained, life-changing assistance dogs for people in need. Since 1987, FSD has graduated hundreds of client-dog teams and their services are free to qualifying individuals.
Pledge cards were mailed to all plant locations and must be scanned and sent back to the Home Office by October 10th. For every 50 Helping Hand donations, we will do a raffle for $100, plus you will receive a little something extra!
