Ready Set School
.jpg) Jerry and Pat Papenfuss of Winona Radio issued Ready Set School a $10,000 Challenge Grant which ran from March 15th through April 30th. All donations up to $10,000 would be matched by Winona Radio. Ready Set School raised $10,890 to meet the challenge.
Pictured here, Aaron Taylor presents new Director Susan White with a $10,000 check. “Without the help of Aaron Taylor, this task would have been much more difficult. Aaron’s passion and dedication to the cause helped us keep the campaign fresh in the minds of listeners.” - Susan White.
Ready Set School is raising money year round to help Winona County K-12 students. Just because the campaign is over does not mean we are finished. If you would like to support this organization, please stop by any Winona National Bank to make a deposit, mail a donation to Ready Set School, 317 Market Street, Winona, MN 55987, or make a donation online by visiting our website: www.readysetschoolwinona.org and click “Donate!”
