COVID Cancellation Leads to Camp Courageous Donations
Although COVID-19 put a damper on doing our annual customer appreciation golf outing, we didn’t let it impact our ability to do something good for our local community. In place of the traditional hole sponsorship, we asked for a donation to one of our long time favorite organizations to support.
Camp Courageous, Monticello, Iowa, is a year-round recreational and respite care facility for people with special needs. Ran on donations, nearly 10,000 campers are served annually. It has an emergency respite care program, so when unforeseen circumstances strike families, the camp is there to take care of their loved one.
Even amidst COVID, Camp Courageous is open for families with a special needs member to hike, fish, and to partake in other fun activities. They are also sending activity boxes straight to their campers’ homes.
Eldon Stutsman’s passion for people and helping others led him to love all things Camp Courageous. Dating back to the early 80s, he would make monthly road trips to the camp with a trunk full of needed items. This passion has continued through generations of the Stutsman family and business.
These vendors graciously donated to Camp Courageous; we are extremely thankful for their generosity and partnership!
