Charity Challenge Crosses Threshold, Triggers Matching Grant

ST. CLOUD -- The annual Charity Challenge to support local food shelves has raised $130,000 halfway through the fundraiser.

It triggers a $100,000 matching grant from the Norman C. Skalicky Foundation.

However, the Central Minnesota Community Foundation is hoping to continue raising money to surpass last year's number of $625,000.

All of the money goes to support the food shelves at Catholic Charities, Salvation Army, and St. Joseph.
