Fearing donated $15,000 to Dane County Boys & Girls Club
Dane County Boys & Girls Club
The Dane County Boys & Girls Club does important work providing a safe, fun environment for kids in afterschool programs.
Fearing’s places a high value on creating nurturing environments for kids in need, so we donated $15,000 to the club this month. It was an honor and we believe in being good stewards of all we’ve been given.
“We were blessed to present a check to COO, Dr. Sarah Ghee and VP of Marketing, Janine Stephens of the Boys and Girls Club of Dane County to sponsor a classroom in their new Sun Prairie facility. The club makes an enormous impact in the area and we’re proud to be a part of it.”

Our World: Schools For Haiti
Fearing’s is committed to making a positive impact in our world by being a blessing to people in great need. As we celebrate this season of giving, we want to tell you about our work with Schools for Haiti, an organization that serves nearly 2,000 kids in a region that presents new hardships daily. For the last six years, we have sponsored a gala in Madison to raise money to support the work of Schools for Haiti, but this year, the need has been even more intense.
Political opposition in Haiti continues to create difficulties for students, school staff and their families. Blocked roads paralyze commerce which has caused severe food, water, and fuel shortages for the Haitian people. Some families are barely surviving on one small meal a day.
Schools for Haiti is trying to raise just $15 per student to feed each child’s family of up to six members for two weeks. If you’d like to join us in this special opportunity to support Schools for Haiti this Christmas season, click the link below. And we’d really love to see you at our next gala! Save the date of April 25. More info and opportunities to become involved will be coming soon!
We’re also thankful for you–our friends, colleagues and customers who make this giving opportunity possible. Merry Christmas to all of you!
