Goldammer is surrounded by boxes and buckets of the can tabs he collected for one year. The
total came to more than 750,000 tabs, weighing approximately 500 pounds and
raising $205 for Shriners Hospitals for Children.
ONE Shriner Can Make a Differance
Sanford
Institution for Savings recently made a donation of $729.19 to Shriners
Hospitals for Children.
The money was raised by employees during the bank’s
monthly “Jeans Day for a Cause” fundraiser.
A
different charity is selected for each month, and the staff works together to
choose charities.
Ryan Goldammer requested a jeans day and bake sale to raise
money for Shriners Hospitals for Children.
Born with a spinal birth defect, he
credits the hospital for giving him the opportunity to walk and lead a productive
life. As a member of Shriners, he works to raise both awareness and funds for
the hospital.
Goldammer
is also involved in “Can Tabs for Kids,” a fundraising endeavor where he
collects aluminum can tabs throughout the year and turns them into a designated
redemption center. Proceeds are then sent to Shriners Hospitals in Springfield
and Boston, Mass.
Several companies, including Sanford Institution for Savings,
are working with Goldammer to collect can tabs. His recent yearly
donation came to $205, which the bank agreed to match. The
jeans day and bake sale were held in July.
