The winter months can seem long and dreary, but our hearts are full after Giving Hearts Day 2024! This annual fundraiser is always a highlight of the season at Roers.
Giving Hearts Day 2024 was February 8th. The 24-hour event benefits hundreds of non-profits across North Dakota and Minnesota, and is a great way to support a cause you believe in. After accepting suggestions from employees, our Charitable Giving Committee voted to gift $100 each to the following charities:
We also got into a competitive spirit and filled out our Super Bowl Squares board, with half the money raised going to three local organizations:
- Make-A-Wish North Dakota, receiving $200
- Ronald McDonald House, receiving $150
- BIO Girls, receiving $150
Roers also purchased GHD gift cards to give to employees, who could use them to support a charity of their choice! Some employees even participated in our GHD video posted to Instagram & TikTok showcasing who our employees decided to give back to.
“At Roers, one of our core values is community. Giving Hearts Day is an opportunity to support and give back to the communities we serve,” says Heidi Knutson, VP of marketing, communications, and culture at Roers.
Reflecting on the experience, we’re grateful for the chance to support others, and for the fellowship and generosity of our team.
