In a spirit of Christmas giving, Strawberry Water Users Employee Association donated $500 to Spanish Fork Junior High’s in-house Sub-for-Santa program. Spanish Fork Junior High School is involved in several fund-raising events at this time of year to help those in need including Warm the Soles, Quarters for Christmas, and the Sub-for-Santa programs.
This generous Strawberry Water donation will be used to help specific students in the junior high catchment area who are in dire need of assistance. Students and families are identified by school personnel, parents, and other students who are aware of those needs.
The Strawberry Water Users Employee organization solicits funds each year from its members to help individuals and families who are struggling through the Thanksgiving and holiday season and have been doing just that for many years. They are very appreciative of the school system for the opportunity to reach out to other organizations with needs for their immediate area.
The Strawberry Water Users organization and their employees have been instrumental in securing and delivering water to South Utah Valley since the early 1900s. The water company delivers water to the cities of Mapleton, Spanish Fork, Salem, and Payson to be used in their respective pressurized irrigation systems, including all of the Nebo School District Schools as well as the homes located within each community.
