Each year, businesses in Dubuque, Iowa, come together to help local non-profit organizations.
Our Iowa team recently spent the day at StoryBook Hill Children’s Zoo, helping rake leaves and otherwise prepare the park for the upcoming summer season. Not only did they give back to the community, they had fun doing it!
This year the event provided more than 1,000 total volunteer hours for non-profits in the Dubuque area. The annual event is a partnership of the Young Professionals of Dubuque, Community Foundation of Greater Dubuque, Dubuque Area Chamber of Commerce and United Way of Dubuque Area-Tri States.
Thanks to everyone who participated!
We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
