For an incredible 8 consecutive years, Jim Downey of Prairie Fire Glass has been sharing the beauty of his kindness and creations by gifting our staff with a glass ornament. The time and resources he has put into these gifts are mind-blowing! This is a great man with a huge heart for others that we want to publicly acknowledge and thank. If you are looking for a beautiful piece of art from a beautiful person, look no further than Prairie Fire Glass.

Jim has blessed us with not only these gifts, but with his wise counsel by stating, "Every day we have a choice to shine light or darkness into the world." Jim, thank you for sharing your light into the lives of our staff, who will then hopefully pass it along to those we serve. Your impact of kindness will ripple throughout our community. Thank you!
