Pass It On kickoff event

LIVE UNITED Pass It On!

Over 300 tote bags were passed out June 17 on the square to people who want to make a difference in someone's life. LIVE UNITED Pass It On is a simple, thoughtful act of kindness that will have a ripple effect across all of Marathon County. We still have bags left if you want to participate in Pass It On. Call (848-2927) or stop by our office for more information.

Track the tote bags and tell us about your experience

Pass It On Totes Making a Difference

Since the July 17 kickoff event for LIVE UNITED Pass It On, participants have been distributing tote bags and spreading kindness in Marathon County and beyond.

People were asked to fill a LIVE UNITED tote bag with something that will help an individual or family that could use a package of
hope and ask the recipient to keep the kindness going by passing on the bag to someone else. For instance, bag 189 included a $25 Piggly Wiggly gift certificate and was left with the store manager to be randomly given to someone going through the checkout.

Bag 14 was filled with fresh garden veggies, a promise of regular deliveries and given to an older person who lives alone and can no longer manage a garden.

Beside spreading kindness throughout Marathon County, Pass It On bags have also traveled to Menasha, Milwaukee, Neillsville and even Michigan.

You can follow these bags and others through our website. You can also still participate in LIVE UNITED Pass It On by picking up a tote bag at our office while supplies last.
