Helping Kids Sleep Better, One Bed at a Time
We recently hosted a Donation Drive to support My Very Own Bed, OneCommunity Partner at Park, through their annual Steps for Sleep event. Between our members and our matching total, we were able to raise $1,886, helping provide 4 children with a brand-new bed and Dream Kit, complete with bedding, books, and a stuffed animal. A comfortable bed can make a meaningful difference in a child's daily life, providing a safe space to rest, recharge, and feel at home. We are grateful to everyone who donated and helped us support this important local organization. Thank you to our members and team for coming together to make a difference.

Since 2017, Sparkle Plenty has provided free home cleanings to patients battling cancer through Cleaning for a Reason, a nonprofit that connects cancer patients with cleaning companies. For those undergoing treatment, everyday household tasks can be overwhelming, and taking one responsibility off their plate can make a meaningful difference. What may seem like a simple cleaning can provide families with comfort and peace of mind.

Played on the last Friday of every month, BlackJack Friday always gives you a chance to test your luck, but this time, every hand wins a 100 GRAND (bar), whether you win or lose.

You can't win if you don't play, so make time to swing by the front desk and see what the cards have in store! | | | The Randy Shaver Cancer Research & Community Fund, Minnetonka Member, is partnering with the American Legion in Chanhassen to host a Fish Fry on Oct. 9.

Stay Ahead of Flu Season
Flu season is just around the corner, making now a good time to think about your annual flu vaccination. If you choose to get vaccinated, free flu shots are available at all Walgreens locations, with the option to walk in or schedule an appointment ahead of time. The vaccine is recommended for individuals ages 3 and older and is safe for those who are pregnant, diabetic, or living with a chronic health condition. Flu vaccines are updated each year to help protect against the strains expected to be most common, which makes getting vaccinated annually important. It can take up to two weeks for your body to build full protection, so consider getting your flu shot early. Schedule your appointment HERE.
