The $3,000 donation will turn into $6,000 with a matching grant from the 2024 Central Minnesota K9 Foundation. 20 students raised the money through a peach-selling campaign in May and June.

The kids sold the peaches door to door to friends, family, and community members and partnered with the BoHo Cafe to sell the produce to their customers.
