🎉 Let’s celebrate Deb! 🎉

Today we say a massive THANK YOU to our incredible AmeriCorps member, Deb, as she completes her service!

Stepping Stones of Dunn County recieved a $2,500 grant from P.E.O Wisconsin Sarah Shinn Marshall Fund to purchase a new washing station along with other donations from the community. This upgrade improves sanitation and daily operations, helping our organization better serve local families and individuals. We can't thank them enough for this transformative piece of equipment.

☀️ Last week, many of our incredible team at Stepping Stones of Dunn County took to the water of Tainter Lake for a special staff development day. The afternoon was filled with laughter, a pontoon ride and a nice walk in the water. It was nice to connect outside of our office walls and get to know grow our bonds as a staff.

A massive shout-out and thank you to Jeff Frawley at Red Cedar Fly Fishing. Jeff generously hosted our crew at his private dock and provided an opportunity to enjoy his "slice of paradise" for a couple hours.
