Share Your Story!
We've officially launched our year-end campaign - Share Your Story!

We've enjoyed hearing stories of impact in our community, and it's an honor to share some of those with you. 

Take some time this week to read about the great things happening in Henry County...

Garden Club Brings New Life to Abandoned Land
"This was a good experience. When I grow up, if I move to someplace different, I can still have a garden because I've learned how to do it."

- Sy Hinshaw
Third Grade Student Parker Elementary School

Read about a new community garden, the third-grade garden club, and how our donors play a part in this story on our website.

For Generations to Come
"Grandma would be so proud of my mom for carrying on her legacy. It has been a blessing to watch my mom find joy in helping others in memory of my grandma. So many teachers and students have benefited from this endowment. I can't wait to see what the future brings."

- Mica White
Granddaughter of Grandma Katie McClure
