🏡 SHE'S HOME.

After 13 miles down a Kansas highway, a donated farmhouse found her new address today right here in Dighton.

Watch this 60-second film by Myers Media and tell us — did you get chills? Because we did. 🙌

This is the Dighton Build the Future Fund in action. A home donated by a generous Lane County family. A community that showed up. A foundation — literally and figuratively — already waiting for her.

This house will be fully renovated, updated with a new garage and addition, and sold at an affordable price to a Lane County family ready to put down roots here.

None of this happens without the donors who trusted us with their home. Without the community leaders who believed in this before there was anything to believe in. The donors who gave money to fund. And without every single one of you who has followed along and cheered us on.

Dighton is building something, and, the whole world got to watch it move down the highway. 🚛

Stay tuned — the best chapters of this story are still ahead.

🌟 A new fund — and a meaningful tribute. 🌟
We are honored to announce the establishment of the Marlene Boomhower Memorial Fund at the Lane County Community Foundation.

This fund will provide financial assistance to Lane County Hospital and Lane County EMS for equipment needs — directly strengthening the care available to our friends, family, and neighbors right here at home.

Thank you, Craig, for this beautiful tribute to your mom and this lasting gift to our community. ❤️
