CH Robinson Move

With the support of 12 volunteers from C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc., 40 staff were able to move in to our new St. Louis Park office this summer. One volunteer donated the truck and fuel while the team made three trips and placed office supplies in each cube. The organization has also since awarded a $2,500 grant for our Early Childhood Education Respite program.
