Today we’re celebrating the incredible Amy Gullion 💛

Amy began her journey in 1986 as a house parent at the Nebraska Boys Ranch, caring for and walking alongside youth each day through 2009. After some time away, she returned in 2016 as our Executive Assistant—bringing that same heart, dedication, and steady presence with her.

Today, she keeps us organized, grounded, and deeply connected to our roots. This year marks 40 years of Amy’s impact across the life of this organization.

She is one of the kindest, most thoughtful people you’ll ever meet, and we are so grateful she’s part of our story.

Happy Administrative Professionals Day, Amy—we celebrate you today and always. 🌿
