Sheldon United Fund Drive On Pace To Make Goal On Time

Sheldon, Iowa — Donations to the 2023 Sheldon United Fund continue to come in, and if things keep going as they have been, the funds will reach the goal on time.

The drive continues through the rest of the year. The goal this year is $30,000.
