Our cats are going to love Renee.

When we asked to take her volunteer graduation picture she couldn’t help but smile. She is proud of being able to help the cats, and she should be.

The day went by fast, but the impact lasts forever!

In case you missed it- Special Olympics today was more than an event.

It was courage.
It was joy.
It was community showing up in the best possible way.

Our athletes gave it everything they had, and in so doing, they reminded all of us what determination, hard work, and celebration really look like.

We are so proud of every single one of them. And want to give a zillion bonus points to the crew at Haywood County Special Olympics who made today possible!

Drop a 💙 below to help us celebrate!

Still thinking about last night at Clyde Town Hall.

We showed up to speak—but we also left feeling seen, heard, and genuinely welcomed. Huge thank you to the mayor and Town Council for leading with inclusion and reminding us that it’s something we choose every single day.
