Every year, Stearns Electric employees hold a silent auction and raffles to raise money and then vote to support a local charity.
This year, a check for almost $6,000 was presented to the INDY Foundation, a local organization that helps people battling cancer throughout central Minnesota.
Since 2008, Stearns Electric and its employees have raised over $50,000 and donated it to 15 local organizations.
