Any time we get to show folks around the Friendship Haven campus, we jump at the opportunity.

Thank you to the Greater Fort Dodge Growth Alliance Leadership Fort Dodge fellows and team for hanging out with us, asking incredible questions, and reminding us how lucky we are to do this work here, and not to take a single moment of it for granted.

This week's lets folks know about opportunities to give at .

At Friendship Haven, we believe life should be full of joy, connection, and adventure - no matter your age. Our residents love getting out to experience all that our community and surrounding area have to offer. Whether it’s a day at the casino complete with a delicious meal, an afternoon at the apple orchard, or a peaceful fishing trip at the lake, these outings create lasting memories, laughter, and friendships.

You can help make more of these special experiences possible for everyone. By sponsoring a resident outing, you ensure that all residents have the opportunity to join in on the fun. Your support covers transportation, meals, and activity costs so that no one is left behind when the bus pulls out for the next adventure.

Each outing is more than just a trip - it’s a chance for residents to live their best lives, build community, and continue discovering the world around them.

If you’d like to help sponsor an upcoming resident trip or learn more about how you can contribute, please
contact Jen Lane, Director of Engagement, at (515) 573-6005 or email her at jen.lane (at) friendshiphaven (dot) org.

Together, we can make every Friendship Haven adventure accessible to all.

We’re also sharing a Wish List – special items and projects that would make a meaningful difference for our residents. From cozy comforts to creative programs, each wish helps us continue providing moments of joy, connection, and care. If you’re interested in helping make one of these wishes come true or are interested in learning about other wish items, please contact Jen Lane.
