12-year-old donates $500 to Dough 4 Joe

When presented with the opportunity to donate $500 to a charity of his choice, 12-year-old Dominick Hanson had no problem choosing where the money would go.

Dough 4 Joe is a charity that helps families in times of need, raising funds through donations and an annual motorcycle run at the end of July. The Hanson family has been involved in the event for many years, with Dominick’s father, Cameron, serving on the board, and his mother, Tiffany, as the vendor coordinator. The opportunity came through Dominick’s Confirmation class at Augustana Lutheran Church in Fergus Falls, by a grant from the Beverly and Lloyd Paulson Foundation. Each child in the class got to select a charity to donate to.

The check was donated to Dough 4 Joe in late December.

“Tiffany called and said, “You wouldn’t believe what Dominick is doing!”” said Stan Johnson, the director and founder of Dough 4 Joe, adding that the charity tries to “help families like people did for us. It’s just giving back to the community.”
