Through our involvement with Rotary International's local chapter in Cambridge and Isanti, Ben and Andy were able to donate some of their time this December to bring cheer to shoppers by ringing the Salvation Army bell at Cub Foods in Cambridge. 

 

They were greeted with smiles from many while they ringed the bell of hope for those in need this holiday season.

Let all you do be done in love.

 - 1 Corinthians 16:14

Rum River understands the importance of sharing our blessings with others. 

RRC's philanthropy went International in 2021 with the development of the Mango Community Family Farm in Lagosette, Haiti.  Andy visited Haiti for the first time in May 2021 utilizing his company's insights with code administration and building science to help consult on various buildings for the community farm.  The Mango Family Farm will provide nourishment, income, and purpose to many in Haiti through community education, food accessibility and modeling stewardship of our land and water resources. 

Haiti was visited again in February 2023 by three of our staff members along with a local carpenter to assist with completion of a storage area for equipment that was aquired through business donations and a supplemental Rotary grant.  The equipment will allow more efficient opportunities with cultivating and harvesting at the farm. Additionally, a storage area for garden seeds was installed to protect the seeds from germinating too early in the heat and moisture of the Haitain environment.

Helping Raise Healthy Families

At Life Choices Center a lasting impact is made on each woman and man that comes through their doors with a message of hope, healing and life.  They inspire women and men to make good choices for their future, the future of their children and our communities.

Rum River Consultants Staff have been blessed to have children in our lives, nieces and nephews to dote on, and many others we are happy to claim as "our unofficial adopted children" through the years.  We were happy to donate to this life giving organization that helps parents, children, and community have hope for the future.

Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.
