2024 “Feed the Pig” Fundraiser a Big Success!
In just one month, the recent “Feed the Pig” fundraiser raised $11,089.04 in monetary funds to support area food pantries. Wanting to come alongside organizations helping those in need locally this holiday season, the fundraiser focused on three area food pantries: Decorah Community Food Pantry, NEIACA Food Pantry of Winneshiek County, and Greater Area Food Pantry in Calmar.
The community support was incredible, totaling over $3,589. Joining in on the efforts, Decorah Bank sponsored with $2,500, GPC gave $2,500 and Lynch Family Foundation donated $2,500 in pork.
Thank you to all community members that gave to this important cause. Without your gifts, we could never have raised such a large amount for our community food pantries. Interested in donating? Each of the pantries accepts monetary and food donations year-round.
