Cinco de Mayo Festive Celebration
This Cinco de Mayo, we were glad to support a festive afternoon for these Hope Haven individuals with some tasty layered snack cups filled with chips, salsa, beans, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, jalapeños, and black olives. It’s always a joy to help create simple moments of celebration and connection. Thank you to the amazing staff and residents for letting us be part of your day.
Soaking Up the Sun in Style!
With summer on the way, the residents of small group homes in Boone, Iowa are ready to enjoy the outdoors — thanks to new lawn chairs for each resident and new cookware for each house, provided by the Iowa Community Care Foundation!
These gifts were given to help individuals with intellectual disabilities relax outside, share meals, and enjoy time together as a community.
We’re grateful for the chance to support these homes and help make everyday moments a little more special. Here’s to a summer full of sunshine, smiles, and connection!
