Toss in Your Pebble
A pebble landing in a quiet pond sends ripples preading out and reaching points unknown. It’s not clear what exactly happens to the ripples, but the water’s surface is unmistakably changed. Like ripples on a pond, the good work of one person grows out from its source and impacts many more people. Alex Didier’s vision in 1985 to create a local community organization, founded and funded by members of the community, has created a ripple effect across central Minnesota.
At the Foundation’s Annual Dinner in September, we had the opportunity to recognize some of the people who have sent many positive ripples across the community. They are just a few of the donors and volunteers at the Foundation who are making a difference in central Minnesota.
Every day, the Foundation has the distinct privilege of working with generous people creating their own ripples. These ripples connect, build on one another, and grow into waves — making our community a better place to live — both today and for future generations.
We invite you to toss in your own pebble and watch the ripple grow.
