Checks were distributed Wednesday afternoon to three nonprofit organizations in Le Mars as the result of a Le Mars Chamber of Commerce holiday promotion. “Shop for a Cause” raised more than $2300 as a result of this year’s efforts. The Table Food Pantry received $957, Le Mars Community Theatre $827, and the Le Mars Arts Center was given $592. Shoppers donated five dollars and chose one of the three charities in exchange for a discount card which was good at participating Chamber businesses November 13 through December 9. Executive Director of the Le Mars Chamber of Commerce Lori French commented that this year’s “Shop for a Cause” promotion raised over $400 more than last year.
