Pilgrim's

Congratulations to Alexis Schmidt on obtaining her elementary education degree through the Pilgrim’s #TomorrowFund program! Alexis attended college for free after being awarded a full ride scholarship from our Cold Spring, MN, location. When asked the benefit of receiving this scholarship, Alexis stated, “The Tomorrow Fund scholarship was truly transformative for my college career. As a recipient of this scholarship, I was not only relieved of the financial burden of tuition but also empowered to fully immerse myself in the college experience. With the Tomorrow Fund scholarship, I was able to make the most of my college years, not only academically but also personally and socially. It paved the way for me to explore new opportunities, develop important skills, and build lifelong relationships that will continue to impact my life long after graduation.” We wish you nothing but the best in your teaching career, Alexis!

On Memorial Day, we honor the sacrifices made by United States service members to keep our nation free.

Our corporate headquarters held a plant sale fundraiser for United Way of Weld County where we raised over $14,000. Team members had the opportunity to purchase flowers and vegetables, and all proceeds went to United Way. Great work team!

Our Pittsburg, TX, team recently volunteered at the Pittsburg Handicap-able Rodeo. Local school districts bring handicap-able students to participate this event where they are able to ride a horse, learn to rope, meet rodeo clowns and go on a hay ride. This year, there were approximately 200 student participants. Team Pittsburg set up a booth at the event where they handed out promo items, provided bottled water and had a horseshoe game for attendees. Great job, team Pittsburg!
