💛 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘽𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙑𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝘼𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 💛
This past week, we had a special evening celebrating our incredible volunteers, who give so much to New Hope. From 5 years to 35 years of service, we recognized the dedication each one brings to our mission. They truly make a difference in the lives of those we serve!
The night was filled with great food from Lidderdale Country Store, fun memories in the photo booth, a meaningful prayer from Deacon Scott Steffen, and beautiful live music by Briee Roehrig.
To our volunteers, THANK YOU for your time, your kindness, and your unwavering support. We simply couldn’t do what we do without you.

A few of our campus individuals traded their usual routine for an afternoon of fun at the Children’s Museum in Carroll, and it did not disappoint! 😊
From playing vet to lighting up creativity on the giant pegboard and challenging each other to Connect 4, there was something around every corner to explore. There were quiet moments too, like flipping through books and enjoying a snack, with plenty of laughs along the way (especially with the balloon tube sending scarves flying through the air!).
Sometimes it’s the simple joy of getting out, being a little silly, and trying something new that makes the biggest impact. Days like this are what it’s all about. 💛

Carroll vs. Kuemper 🏀🔥 This one got competitive...! Witnessing this in person Saturday night was so much fun, as these two quilts went head-to-head. Friendly rivalry turned into something bigger—supporting the individuals we serve at New Hope. Thank you to everyone who placed an offer on one of our items, every bid made a difference. 💙

🐰A Very Special Visitor on Campus! 🌸
We had the sweetest surprise this weekend, the Easter Bunny hopped onto campus to spend time with our individuals! 💛

A big thank you to a local college student who volunteered her time to bring smiles and a little Easter magic to everyone’s day. It took a few of our individuals a moment to warm up (as meeting a giant bunny can be a big deal! 😄), but before long, the smiles said it all!

And the fun didn’t stop there… Duke, one of our employees’ dogs, joined in on the celebration, dressed as a chicken! 🐶🐔 He definitely stole a few hearts (and a few laughs, too).

Stacey Vonnahme and Cindy Neil with New Hope Village in Carroll, an organization that provides residential and vocational support to help adults with disabilities, stopped by the morning show today to talk about their upcoming Quilt Raffle.

They even brought in an AMAZING quilt they said “fit radio perfectly"! Full show below.
