Uniting forces with the Company's match, a check in the amount of $24,262 and $175 in cash was presented to La Junta Associated Charities. 

"Their collective dedication continues to make an immeasurable impact, providing vital support to families within our local area," McIntosh said.

This large of a donation will impact over 1,200 families this next year, according to Associated Charities.

1,100 meals were distributed in November, with 200 turkeys and 200 hams to be given out for Christmas, according to Associated Charities Manager Cathleen Irigoyen. She said there are about five volunteers who help at the La Junta-based non-profit.
