Phil & Margie SlingsbyPhil and Margie Slingsby feel strongly about supporting United Way because it reaches so many people in the Mankato area. There are many excellent non-profit groups and every year, United Way evaluates the needs of the citizens of the Mankato area and distributes the funds accordingly. Phil worked with the United Way campaign at Scheels for many years. As a retired Scheels manager, he saw how the corporation supports its communities, and Phil and Margie have been following its example of giving back to the community through United Way.
Lowell & Nadine Andreas FoundationLowell Andreas was a philanthropist and a longtime contributor to United Way. His commitment to the community, particularly his passion for youth and education, was reflected in his generosity as the Greater Mankato Area United Way’s largest donor to date.

Olseth Family Foundation The Olseth Family Foundation is working to improve the community through support of arts, education, the environment and the underserved. In 2017, the foundation’s passion for literacy and equal access to books led to Greater Mankato Area United Way’s Fourth-Grade Book Project, which provides a Shel Silverstein poetry book to every fourth-grader in the region. The Olseth Family Foundation supports many other community initiatives, including Books for Kids and BackPack Food Program.
Dennis & Carole Dotson Carole and Denny are longtime residents of Mankato and have enjoyed watching the community become a regional center.

Bill & Beth SoderlundBill and Beth Soderlund are tremendous community supporters who are strong in their faith and believe in planting the seeds of giving.

A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.’
Bill and Beth see United Way as very good soil that produces a beautiful harvest through its benefits to people of all ages. Bill and Beth have nine wonderful children and reside in St. Peter. Bill also supports United Way through his St. Peter-based company, Vet-Rx.
