Glenn Hope Care farm is a nonprofit, established on our family farm, that serves the veterans of the community. Aimee's grandfather, Glenn F. Cunningham Sr, WWII veteran purchased the farm 60 years ago. She is a third generation farmer, assisting her dad to teach the trade and skills of farming to veterans while they gain from the therapeutic benefits of farm life. The mission of Glenn Hope is to help veterans to overcome challenges through farming, nature and community outreach. Farm activities range from PT to butchering and everything in between. In addition to serving the veteran community, they've partnered with the local school district as one of the small business partners where the high school interns can complete their internship. Beyond that, they work with the district attorney's office, scout troops and many other organizations.

IDEA - Did you know that Rotary International has a laser focus on DEI? From their commitment statement: “At Rotary, we understand that cultivating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture is essential to realizing our vision of a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change.” And “In line with our value of integrity, we are committed to being honest and transparent about where we are in our DEI journey as an organization, and to continue to learn and do better.” As a club, can we do anything less?
