UPCOMING EVENTS

Driving Change Together for Breast Cancer Awareness

This October, Weelborg is proud to stand with the breast cancer patients, survivors, and families in our communities. Breast cancer touches so many lives across Southern Minnesota, and we believe every one of us can play a part in making the journey a little easier for those facing it. That's why we're collecting donations throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with every dollar going directly to a local organization that makes a real difference. 

Where Your Donation Goes

All donations go to B the Light, a non-profit organization dedicated to serving breast cancer patients and their families in the Southern Minnesota area. Their work provides meaningful support to local people during one of the most challenging times of their lives. When you give, you're helping neighbors right here at home. 

How to Donate

Giving is simple. Stop by any Weelborg location in Redwood Falls, New Ulm, or Glencoe to make a donation, or scan the QR code on our event flyer to learn more. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps B the Light continue its mission of supporting patients and families when they need it most.

B The Light

Weelborg Ford is proud to support Cancer Awareness Month. This past October, our dealership participated in a group-wide effort by offering Breast Cancer wristbands for sale, with donations benefiting B the Light. This incredible non-profit organization serves breast cancer patients and their families throughout the Southern Minnesota area. Together, the Weelborg Auto Group raised over $3,000 to support this meaningful cause, helping to make a difference in the lives of those battling breast cancer.
