4. What do you like most about your community?

I feel very fortunate to have been born and raised in Rush County. To have worked and learned about strong work ethic on our family farm. Those early learning opportunities have served me well and often in my adult life and career.

I was encouraged to join some RCCF committees by J.B. Gardner, and committee participation led to an invitation to become a board member.

RCCF provides the platform for individual and family and, yes, even companies to make positive donations to any number of funds to invest in the community. The Foundation actively seeks and creates affirmative actions to help make our community and Rush County a better place to live and participate in good causes.
