"A life is not important except in the impact it has on other's lives" - Jackie Robinson
We all possess the ability to make an impact in other's lives each and every day. The type of impact you make, however, starts with a choice. There are many ways to make an impact, through volunteer work, mentoring, companionship, monetary help, or something as simple as being kind to someone. The question is, what type of impact can you make in your community?
Our 30 partner programs are great examples of people stepping up and making an impact in Becker County. Through the generous donation of people like you, there programs re equipped to provide people in our community resources necessary to positively affect their lives.
Can you think back to a time someone make an impact in you life? Any positive impact, big or small, can make a world of difference in our community. Moving forward, I challenge you to take initiative and make an impact in someone's life each and every day!
