Staff Gift Card Contribution

Thank you to all those who contributed to the staff gift card collection.  We gifted our amazing staff $17,720 in gift cards!!!!

Staff will be selecting gift cards through Raise Right and the HSA will earn a percentage back, so your gift contributions also helped the HSA. (funds will be used to spoil our staff in the future)
