Children’s shelter benefits from Edgewood Cos. donation

Edgewood Companies donated $8,250 to The Austin Kirby Foundation, an emergency children’s shelter providing services to children from rural Northern Nevada who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect.

This most recent donation is one of many over the years to the charity, with a total of $30,950 over the last three years alone being given from Edgewood Companies. This makes Edgewood Companies, formerly Park Cattle Co., the largest benefactor of Austin’s House.

The $8,250 will be used by Austin’s House to cover its annual land lease with the Bureau of Land Management.

In addition to monetary contributions to the children’s charity, Edgewood Companies has also donated use of their land for an event that raised more than $50,000 for the charity.
