Weidner Cares arrives in Minnesota to partner with Tubman!
On Tuesday, September 9th, associates across our Minnesota region dedicated a day to volunteering at Tubman as part of our annual Weidner Cares program. Weidner Cares is a company-wide philanthropic initiative we host in each region. During this event, our teams close their doors for an entire workday to contribute their time, resources, and expertise to support a local non-profit organization in need.
When our volunteers walked into Tubman’s facility, they were greeted by a long to-do list and well-worn spaces ready for new life. By the end of the day, those same spaces were transformed into a welcoming home for those who need it most.
In Harriet’s Closet, our team installed new shelving that turned a cluttered storage space into a tidy, functional area where families can access what they need. Garages that once housed hazardous materials and disorganized tools were converted into safe and efficient storage zones. Volunteers replaced air filters across five floors of shelter bedrooms, a simple yet significant detail that will positively impact the hundreds of residents who pass through each year.
Meanwhile, the art and childcare rooms buzzed with laughter and energy as they received fresh coats of paint and were reorganized to inspire creativity and play. Outside, teams landscaped, cleaned, and revitalized the grounds, ensuring that Tubman’s exterior matched the warmth of its mission.
This is what Weidner Cares looks like in Minnesota: sleeves rolled up, smiles shining, and a strong commitment to ensuring that the organizations caring for our neighbors receive the support they deserve.
