The Carroll High School Foundation is thrilled to announce the success of their recent Carroll Kindness fundraiser. COVID-19 has required the implementation of social distancing, making a large annual effort like the Tiger Trot difficult if not unfeasible. The foundation members put their heads together and came up with a plan for kindness instead, that had family, friends, community residents and businesses making pledges in exchange for acts of kindness to be carried out by students. With a goal of $30,000 in 12 days, the initiative started out strong, but was still nearly $8,000 short of that goal on their final day.

The United Way of Carroll has announced $34,000 in funding for 2021 was allocated during their January meeting. Executive Director, Jen Munson, says they were surprised to see an increase in donations by about $10,000 over previous years; especially during a pandemic.
Munson says they are very proud that all of the money they raise stays in Carroll County. Westside State Bank, American Home Shield, New Way Ford and United Bank of Iowa pay the national fees, freeing up the money for local donations. Some saw an increase in service needs this year because of COVID.
Donations have been earmarked for more than 13 organizations. These include the Carroll County Nest, Carroll Area Child Care Center, Catholic Charities, Region XII for discount taxi tickets for the elderly and disabled and Carroll County Home Care Aid Services. Munson says the latter was one that saw increased need.
