MRCI Donation to ARS Ruth Brandel and Linda Leger from the MRCI Bargains Store in New Ulm surprised Adaptive Recreational Services (ARS) of New Ulm with a very generous $1,000 donation. Adaptive Recreational Services is a non-profit organization offering social, educational and recreational programming for teens and adults with disabilities. ARS relies heavily on donations to continue to offer these programs at a reduced rate to our participants. This is not the first time that MRCI Bargains has donated to us, and we are very appreciative of the support. Pictured are Ruth Brandel (MRCI Bargains), Linda Leger (MRCI Bargains), Karrie Borchert (ARS Coordinator), Heidi Connor (ARS Assistant), Mackenzie (ARS participant) and John (ARS participant).
