RESCO Contributes to the United Way
Hudson, WI – February, 2011 RESCO of Hudson, Wisconsin has recently completed their United Way Campaign for 2011 and will be contributing $6,000.00 to United Way St. Croix Valley. According to company president, John Knutson, “We make a great living in the St. Croix Valley and contributing to the United Way is a great opportunity that we as a company, along with our employees, can give something back to the St. Croix Valley by supporting the United Way. Karen Homeier does a great job organizing our campaign every year and has great employee participation.”
Historically, about 80% of United Way’s funding comes from employees giving through payroll deduction. “We are so thankful for the support that we received from RESCO and its employees because it helps us feed and shelter people,” said United Way Executive Director, John Coughlin.
The United Way campaign supports approximately 80 agency programs and three initiatives. United Way’s Food Resource Center, Shelter for All, and Success By 6 initiatives address immediate needs and promote long-term community change. “RESCO does a great job of having fun with their successful campaign to support local charities,” continued Coughlin.
