WKTY Cares Partnership

We are honored to be a key partner of WKTY Cares an organization dedicated to helping those in need across our region. Through financial support and hands-on involvement, we’re proud to stand alongside WKTY in their mission to improve the lives of local families and organizations.

Our ongoing partnership with WKTY Cares has allowed us to make a tangible difference in the lives of families across the Coulee Region. As a long-time sponsor, Kratt Lumber has contributed to numerous fundraising efforts aimed at assisting individuals and nonprofits in need. From youth programs to supporting local charities and organizations, we believe in lending a helping hand whenever possible.

Supporting Local Sports and Youth Programs

We know that the youth are the future of our community, and we’re proud to support numerous local sports teams, including baseball, basketball, and football leagues. These contributions ensure that young athletes in the Coulee Region have the resources they need to succeed on and off the field.

Sponsorship and Donations

Beyond just building materials, we are committed to providing financial support to initiatives that matter to our customers and our community. Each year, we sponsor local festivals, fundraisers, and events that celebrate the spirit of the Coulee Region. These contributions enable us to give back to the people who have trusted Kratt Lumber for over four decades.

Supporting Youth Development through Wrestling

Kratt Lumber is proud to be the sole sponsor of the Boys & Girls Club Youth Wrestling Program in La Crosse. This program, aimed at children from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade, provides an opportunity for young athletes to build not only physical strength but also important life skills like discipline, teamwork, and perseverance. The sponsorship by Kratt Lumber ensures that the program remains accessible to families in the community, fostering the growth of future leaders both on and off the mat.

The Boys & Girls Club of Greater La Crosse has a long history of supporting youth development through various programs, and their wrestling program is a key part of that mission. With Kratt Lumber’s ongoing support, these young athletes have access to high-quality training and mentorship, helping them reach their full potential.
