Thank You for Supporting the 2025 Local Box
The 2025 Local Box Manitowoc County campaign has officially wrapped, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thanks to our community’s incredible support, this year’s Local Boxes helped raise funds that directly support Progress Lakeshore’s entrepreneurial programming and economic development efforts across Manitowoc County.
This year marked our first time offering two themed boxes, and your enthusiasm made it a truly special campaign. Whether you purchased a box, shared the project with a friend, supported one of the featured businesses, or cheered us on, thank you.
