JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The Anne Carlsen Center was presented a $10,000 donation from Don Wilhelm, Inc. for their Pathway to the Future campaign Thursday.

“It is with great pleasure that we accept this gracious gift from Don Wilhelm, Inc.,” Associate Campaign Director Mary Lou Urquhart stated. “This campaign, lending fruition to the dream of a future home for the Anne Carlsen Center, has seen phenomenal support from the Jamestown community.”

For 60 years, Don Wilhelm, Inc. has been doing business in Jamestown.

“Their collaboration with [us] is yet another example o the ongoing philanthropy of the Wilhelm family giving back to the communities they serve and beyond.”

Growing up in Jamestown, the family has had the opportunity to know Dr. Anne Carlsen personally.

“Providing support to keep her legacy moving forward was an easy decision for the family,” Urquhart added. “Having been a community partner with the Anne Carlsen Center for nearly 35 years, the Wilhelm’s have built a legacy of generosity to enhance the lives of the individuals we serve. With the continued support of businesses that have nearly the same longevity as the Anne Carlsen Center, we will strive forward together; building community, nurturing abilities, and changing lives.”
