During the event, Sam’s Club employees presented checks totaling $10,000 dollars in community grants to the following organizations: Teammates Mentoring Program of Lincoln; Kloefkorn Elementary School PTO; Cornhusker Council, Boy Scouts of America; Tabitha; Bright Lights; Lincoln City Libraries; Nebraska Sports Council; Git R Done Foundation; Friendship Home of Lincoln; Camp Kesem; Sleep Well Nebraska; and the Lancaster County Agricultural Society. Additionally, store associates were honored for volunteering throughout the past year with the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, and a check was presented to representatives of the organization of funds that were raised during that time. The following day, Froggy 98 was on-site for a remote satellite, Coach Tom Osborne was present to sign copies of his newest book, and employees were treated to lunch from the Nitro Burger food truck.
