Prairie Rose Holiday Helpers: Share the Joy Winner Announcement and a Surprise Ending!
This December, Prairie Rose Family Dentists launched the Prairie Rose Hometown Holiday Helpers program, our two-part initiative designed to bring immediate support and joy to our local community during the holiday season. We were overwhelmed by the outpouring of support, participation, and enthusiasm from our community. Today, we’re excited to share the results and an exciting surprise that embodies the spirit of giving.
Announcing the Share the Joy Winner: Anna Marie Aeschliman!
Congratulations to Anna Marie Aeschliman, the randomly selected winner of our Share the Joy Contest! Anna Marie, a resident of Mandan, discovered our contest through her sister, who shared the joy and encouraged her to participate. Anna Marie has won $500 to brighten her holiday season.
Thank you, Anna Marie, for being part of our mission to spread cheer and give back to our community!
A Special Surprise: Everyone Wins!
As part of the Share the Joy Contest, we invited our community to vote for one of four incredible local charities to receive a $500 donation. Each of these organizations plays a vital role in strengthening and uplifting our neighbors, and the support they received was truly inspiring. We were so moved we decided to take an unexpected step. In a surprise twist, we decided that all four charities will receive a $500 donation!
The Charities Receiving Our Support Include:
