Felling Trailers Inc. has named Henry’s Heroes as the 2026 beneficiary of its annual Trailer for a Cause auction. The charitable event — now in its 14th year — involves auctioning a custom Felling FT-12 Pan drop deck trailer online. One-hundred percent of the winning bid is then donated to the selected nonprofit organization.

Since its inception, the Trailer for a Cause auction has raised over $57,000 for nonprofits such as the American Brain Tumor Association, Special Olympics, Pockets of Hope and Backing the Blue. Felling Trailers said the goal is to raise awareness for organizations making a difference, as well as support their vital work.

Employees of Felling Trailers voted Henry’s Heroes as the 2026 Trailer for a Cause auction beneficiary.

“This is incredible news, and thank you so much,” stated the Henry’s Heroes Team. “On behalf of all of us at Henry’s Heroes, we are truly honored to have been selected as the 2026 Trailer for a Cause beneficiary. We are excited to partner with you on this project and can’t wait to see the FT-12 Pan utility trailer come to life, representing Henry’s Heroes.”

“When our team cast their votes, and Henry’s Heroes rose to the top, I wasn’t surprised. As a mother, I was moved,” said Brenda Jennissen, president of Felling Trailers Inc. “Some of them know firsthand how a NICU journey can turn a family’s world upside down and how unexpected contributions make an impact. The work that the Henry’s Heroes team does to ensure no family in our region has to walk that path alone is exactly the kind of cause our Trailer for a Cause tradition was built to support. We are proud to put Felling Trailers’ craftsmanship behind an organization doing such meaningful work for families right here in our own backyard.”

From the press release:

Henry’s Heroes is a Central Minnesota-based nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting families navigating the emotional and financial challenges of a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) journey. The Henry’s Heroes team provides various forms of assistance to the NICU families they serve, including direct financial donations to help offset the real-world costs of a NICU stay, thoughtfully curated care packages to bring comfort and encouragement during long hospital stays, and community outreach to connect families with resources and a network of people who understand the road they are traveling. Felling Trailers is proud to support an organization that gives so holistically and generously to families in Central Minnesota.

The 2026 auction is being planned for mid-Fall. In the meantime, Felling Trailers will collaborate with Henry’s Heroes to raise awareness about the work they do and the families and community members they serve throughout Central Minnesota and beyond.
