Our mission is to "Promote the common good and general welfare of the community of Warrens, including holding an annual festival and raising funds to be used exclusively for civic betterments and social improvements in the Warrens community."
Warrens Cranberry Festival has given over $2 million in donations which have benefited several community organizations, including area schools, the local fire department and the Warrens Lions Club. The Festival also has its own Scholarship Fund for college students. To receive donations, each group must fill out a donation request form that is reviewed by our Board of Directors, as well as, our Membership. If your group or organization is in need, fill out a donation request form and return it to the Warrens Cranberry Festival Office.
In addition to benefiting the community of Warrens, the Festival also benefits the Monroe County area. During the Festival each year, area hotels, campgrounds, restaurants and gas stations are filled with thousands of customers. This economic boost totals in excess of $4 million in revenue to Monroe County each year.
If you would like to help Warrens Cranberry Festival achieve its mission, think about volunteering your time to the Festival, or even Sponsor one of our events. Donations to the Festival are also accepted. See our "Get Involved" page for more information.
