2017 Ronald McDonald House Adopt-a-meal Program Volunteers
We love being able to volunteer at Ronald McDonald House through their Adopt a Meal Program. It’s always a great team building activity for us, and we know how important it is for families to feel at home while they are in hospitals with a seriously ill or injured child. What better way to do that than through a delicious, home-style meal. We appreciate the great work done by Ronald McDonald House Charities. Please consider getting involved with their Adopt a Meal Program.
2017 Summer Business Food & Fund Drive Sponsorship
For most people, summer is a time for fun and relaxation. Unfortunately for some kids and their families, summer means worrying about whether there will be enough to eat. With many children losing access to school lunch and breakfast programs, more families make emergency food requests to help stretch their budgets. That’s why Les Olson Company is proud to sponsor Utah Food Bank’s annual Summer Business Food & Fund Drive, to encourage businesses and community groups across Utah to host their own food and fund drives during this critical time of need.
