25 Years of Service

At the December meeting of the Faribault Foundation Board of Directors, two outstanding community leaders were recognized for 25 years of service to the Foundation.

Pat Gustafson and Todd Markman were both on the founding board of directors in 1999, and both worked in the years prior to form the non-profit organization, develop the original by-laws and recruit the original board.

For 25 years Todd has served as the organization Treasurer. Pat has help develop strategic plans and many events.

In recent years the Faribault Foundation has gone through a significant transformation, with both Todd and Pat helping make the new iteration a reality.

That kind of dedication is rare and the Faribault Foundation is in awe with gratitude for their tireless work for over 25 years.
