What a powerful presentation at Rotary today! We were honored to hear from Dwayne Wilson, President of Hope for the Forgotten Outreach, who shared how his team shows up for families in our community when they have nowhere else to turn.
Their work is simple and profound: meeting urgent needs with practical help, whether that’s a home repair, food, or just showing up when every other door has closed. It’s a reminder of what’s possible when a community decides no one gets forgotten.
Thank you, Dwayne, for the work you do and for sharing your story with us today. If you’re looking for a way to make a difference locally, Hope for the Forgotten Outreach is worth a look. 
We were honored to welcome Jennifer Naegele, Council Director of Girls on the Run – Great Lakes Bay, who shared how this incredible program is helping young girls build confidence, resilience, and healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Girls on the Run uses running as a tool to teach life skills — helping girls discover that “there are so many opportunities to be remarkable, just by being herself.” From building self-esteem to fostering connection and community, this organization is making a real difference for girls right here in the Great Lakes Bay region.
Thank you, Jennifer, for inspiring us and for the work you and your team do every day!
