Friday's District Celebration
MERIDIAN C.U.S.D. #223
BENNY'S CORNER MARKET AND EXXON MOBILE JOIN HANDS TO SUPPORT
Stillman Valley, IL – Meridian C.U.S.D. #223 is pleased to announce the receipt of a
generous grant from Laura Thomas, site manager for Benny's Corner Market in
collaboration with ExxonMobil.
The ExxonMobil Foundation’s Educational Matching Gift Program is intended to
encourage support for accredited U.S. institutions of higher education by employees,
retirees and surviving spouses. The intent of the program is to encourage volunteerism
through worthwhile and genuinely charitable activities in local communities. A $500
grant is awarded to an eligible, charitable nonprofit organization after an individual
volunteer or team of volunteers contributes at least 20 hours of their time to the
organization during a calendar year.
The partnership between Benny's Corner Market and ExxonMobil exemplifies their
commitment to supporting community organizations that are making a meaningful
impact in the Ogle County area.
"We are fortunate to partner with Exxon Mobil along with our local Benny’s Corner
Market and the outstanding employees in our community. We are so thankful for the
generous donation to SVHS," said Leslie Showers, Principal at Stillman Valley High
School.

Why should I attend a Group Connection Activity?
Posted September 18, 2023
By Lois Meisenheimer, First Years PAT, Sterling
Every month our parent educators provide several opportunities for families to participate in Group Connection activities. What are group connections? These activities are specifically designed based on what YOU tell us you want to do or learn more about. Group connections are a chance for you to get out and about in your community and participate in fun, age-appropriate activities with your child.
