Supporting Communities, Building a Legacy
The W.R. and Floy A. Sauey Family Foundation
The W.R. and Floy A. Sauey Family Foundation, as a private corporate foundation, is committed to the local communities in which the Nordic Group Member Companies have operations.
The original endowment was given by W.R. and Floy A. Sauey, and annual charitable contributions are provided by Nordic Group Member Companies. The Foundation will encourage the descendants of W.R. & Floy A. Sauey and the Nordic Group Member Companies to make constructive contributions to local communities and, in this way, to the world at large.
Philanthropic Giving
The founder of the W.R. and Floy A. Sauey Family Foundation shared his philosophy for philanthropic giving in the following words: “As a child I struggled to achieve an education and to find an important place in the world around me.

W.R. and Floy A. Sauey Family Foundation Featured Charity
A StoryWalk is a great way for families to spend time in the parks and encourage reading for people of all ages. These StoryWalks consist of books being formatted and placed within weatherproof frames at specified intervals throughout their location. Along with the books are activities, literacy tips, and information about the public library.
With the donations given the Reedsburg Public Library will be able to continue their journey by having permanent StoryWalk areas at possibly multiple parks in Reedsburg as well as the ability to have temporary StoryWalk locations throughout the year, such as in the downtown area with the help of downtown businesses.
Whether in a permanent installment or a temporary “pop-up” StoryWalk, these books can be utilized multiple times and in multiple areas when set up with processes making them weatherproof.
