Farstad Oil has donated $100,000 to Souris Valley United Way (SVUW) to help toward its goal of $800,000 this year.

The donation will help SVUW, a nonprofit organization in Minot, continue its work in supporting local programs that improve lives and help build a stronger community.

“We simply could not do this without the support of businesses, like Farstad Oil,” said Christy Miller, SVUW outreach specialist.

Every year, local agencies apply for partnership with SVUW and undergo extensive interviews conducted by a team of local volunteers. Agencies that meet SVUW guidelines are granted a portion of the funds raised during SVUW’s annual United Way campaign.
