Nothing is as gratifying as giving back while having a little fun. Check out our most recent charity event, the 2025 Black Ice Jig Fishing Tournament at Sugar Lake in Annandale, MN, which raises money to give back to local 501(c)(3) organizations.

Making Our Mark Through
Charitable Involvement

At The Rachel Foundation, we understand how strong communities create places and opportunities for people to thrive. That’s what makes us so proud to support a variety of registered non-profit organizations where our employees live and work.

It’s our privilege to support the following non-profits. 

Employee
Donation
Matching

We’re proud to stand behind Rachel team members who give their time and resources to causes that matter to them.

Employee Donation Match
When a Rachel employee makes a personal donation to an eligible nonprofit organization, Rachel Contracting will match 100% of their donation, up to $500, with the matching funds invested into the Rachel Foundation.

Volunteer Hour Match
When a Rachel employee volunteers with an eligible nonprofit organization on their personal time, Rachel Contracting will recognize those efforts by contributing $50 per volunteer hour for the first 10 hours—up to $500—to the Rachel Foundation.

Together, these programs allow our employees’ generosity to go even further while strengthening the communities where we live and work.
