During these tough economic times it is refreshing to see a company not only donate money but continue leading the way in ensuring that important non profit services are not interrupted in their communities. A service company, Waste Connections, is embedded in their neighborhoods and has been supporting more than fifteen local charities for many years. Their grass-roots outreach has proven to be the most effective and cost efficient. It works! Many local nonprofits have been struggling in this downturn to stay afloat and Waste Connections has come to their aid - very quietly, but consistently. Government agencies, local governments, please take note. Local grass-roots efforts are the most effective way of reaching and helping people (on Main Street and in rural areas), during this downturn and that includes job creation and important necessary services. The "culture of giving" and community service starts at the top with management, and Ron Mittelstaedt is a leader to watch. Waste Connections is having a huge impact on El Dorado and Sacramento county communities. Let’s all learn from their example and pitch in - our work has just begun!

What are those huge impacts? Which non-profits? How does Waste Connections earn its money to help the non-profits? Is it a waste hauler for El Dorado and suburban Sacramento county? Who is Ron Mittelstaedt? Do you represent Ron?
