Minnesota Masonic Charities has made two matching grants to gifts Unity Chapter No. 29 Order of the Eastern Star made in Austin.

Unity made a $100 gift to the Austin High School band and a $200 gift to Commander Ronald Hanson of the Disabled American Veterans Arnold Brandt Chapter No. 27 earlier this year. A grant program allowed for Unity to request and obtain the matching donations.

Members of Unity and DAV gather around the donation. From left: Kathy Foster, Unity; Harriet DeLaney, Unity; Steve Neiswanger, worthy patron; Norm Hecimovich, DAV; commander Ronald Hanson, DAV; Betty Ravine, Unity; and Betty Volkert, Unity.
