-Security Health Plan of Wisconsin, Inc. will invest $1,000 in ABIDE Together, of Marshfield, as part of its Employee-Driven Corporate Giving grant program.Each month Security Health Plan awards a $1,000 grant to a different charity or organization that is nominated by a Marshfield Clinic Health System employee. Employees are encouraged to nominate organizations making a positive difference in the community. Cindy Lee, a registered nurse at the Health System’s Child Development Center, nominated ABIDE Together for the grant. ABIDE Together is, as White described it, the “outreach arm of the ABIDE ministry at North Ridge Church that goes out into Marshfield and the surrounding community.” The ABIDE ministry, she said, is the special needs ministry at North Ridge. ABIDE Together was formed last fall when the need to expand the ABIDE ministry was realized.
Lee said she nominated ABIDE Together because it is important to her as a parent of a young adult with unique abilities. Earlier this month ABIDE Together hosted their fourth annual prom at Hotel Marshfield. With 125 guests and over 200 volunteers making it happen, the event provided a special night for the attendees, including pre-prom hair and makeup, a red-carpet welcome, food, flowers, shoe shine, photo booths, dance and a respite room for families and caregivers.
