Trane Technologies announced on Monday afternoon that it is donating 41.5 acres of land to the School District of La Crosse. The site is the Pammel Creek Road property that includes the Rueben Trane Building that once served as the headquarters of the Trane Company. “Trane Technologies is deeply invested in the success and well-being of the La Crosse community,” said Tom Gallant, Vice President, Engineering & Technology, Trane Technologies. “This donation is a way for us to support local students, educators and families while contributing to the community in which so many of our employees live and work. We’re pleased to provide the district with a resource ahead of the new school year that can help advance its educational mission for future generations.” According to a news release from Trane Technologies and the School District of La Crosse, they have multiple uses proposed for the site.

The La Crosse Community Foundation has awared a grant of nearly $65,000 to the Family and Children’s Center, to sponsor a Teen Support Group that will meet every week. Megan Pierce of the Community Foundation hopes that the donation for the new program will help give more teens support from their peers. “I am most excited for teens to know that they’re not alone,” Pierce told reporters on Monday. “That there’s folks that have gone through similar experiences,” she said, noting that adults “also care about them.” A group of young people gathered Monday at the Family and Children’s Center , where a new support group has been formed. Danielle Swedberg, a coordinator with the Family and Children’s Center, says there has been talk for years about organizing something like this new support group, “but we didn’t have anything that was specific to teens kind of supporting each other, so we were able to create this Teen Support Group.” “So, we will have a therapist that’ll guide it, but we also have it structured in a way that there are activities and other things built into the curriculum that will allow the teens to support themselves,” says Swedberg. A Youth Risk Behavior survey done for La Crosse County in 2023 indicated that 10 per cent of local high school students reported being forced into sexual activity, and 7 per cent reported being raped. The support group is open to young people ages 13 to 18, primarily who have had to deal with sexual abuse and related behaviors.
