American Solutions for Business (PPAI 101656, D12) raised $500 for local kindergarten classes in Glenwood, Minnesota, home of the distributor’s headquarters. Every September, ASB’s internal Stewardship Committee holds raffles for the school and distributes to areas with the greatest need. This year, the school counselor indicated that each kindergarten family is asked to pay $30 to help cover snacks for the year. This is a struggle for some families. The funds raised and donated by ASB will help cover the costs and alleviate some of the financial burden local families are facing.
The Stewardship Committee at ASB promotes the distributor’s culture and fosters fellowship among employees while coordinating events activities, and fundraisers to benefit the communities in which they live and the causes to which they are dedicated. The group focuses on six to eight charitable causes each year but as needs arise, the team may sponsor other benefits.
Throughout the year, the Stewardship Committee also donate to Pope County Hospice, Pope County Food Shelf, Pope County Humane Society and Rainbow Rider to help the local Head Start children get a ride to school.
