Interra launches program to assist agencies

REGIONAL 23rd annual "Hometown Giving" project is in full swing to help a variety of agencies across a six-county area. Several initiatives focus on providing funding, hosting parties for children, shopping for adopt-a-family programs, and more. "Corporate support of $20,000, combined with staff fundraisers and member involvement, make the project so successful," Karen Steffensen, vice-president of communications and community engagement, said. A staff committee met earlier this fall to review and determine which agencies "Hometown Giving" will support this year. Committee members contacted agencies to learn about wish list needs, plan, parties, and adopt families. The primary internal fundraiser is a staff silent auction.
