Thorogood donates to the Haunted Sawmill

The Thorogood Outlet Store in Merrill recently donated 30 pairs of boots to the Haunted Sawmill. The Haunted Sawmill is run by the Friends of Vincent Foundation, Inc., a non-profit organization with a mission to help young people in Merrill and the surrounding communities gain access to activities, outings, and events they may not have been able to afford on their own. Many local kids often volunteer for their main fundraising event around Halloween, the Haunted Sawmill. Through this event, the Friends of Vincent have donated money back to the community by helping youth with scouting and supporting youth with a Merrill High School scholarship, the Backpack for Kids campaign, school trips, and Explorer Post outings and events. Those that accepted Thorogood’s donation of boots said, "We are so very appreciative. This amazing donation really helps. There were a lot of kids without proper footwear or who simply could not afford the cost of boots." Thorogood is proud to support the local communities and donate to those in need! Submitted photo.
