Doing Great Good in Dubuque

By

Three of AOH Dubuque Division 2’s founding members, Iowa AOH Board member and AOH 2 Historian “General Bob” Felderman, Iowa Treasurer Mike Martin and Bob Feeney presented Dubuque Rescue Mission Executive Director Rick Mihm, second from right, with a contribution as part of the Division’s annual program of giving.
As members of the Dubuque County Division 2, located in the City of Dubuque, Iowa, we annually distribute donations to worthy groups and causes that reflect our mission of Friendship, Unity and Christian Charity.

This year we included the Dubuque Rescue Mission for its outreach offering food, shelter, clothing and job assistance to men in need, with a donation of $1,000.

Formed in 2013, Dubuque Division 2 has donated more than $34,000 to schools, charities and other worthy causes. These include Mary’s Inn Maternity Home, the American Cancer Society, Anamosa State Penitentiary Chapel, Dubuque Wahlert High School and Research for the Kids, with donations ranging from $500 to more than $9,000.

Dubuque Division 2 raises funds from member donations, St. Patrick’s Day Events, and the Dubuque Irish Hooley Music Festival (held each year on the fourth Saturday of August).
