🇺🇸 A new project in North Platte is creating more than tiny homes - it’s creating a path toward stability and independence for local veterans.

Honor Homes at Patty’s Place, organized through the Connection Homeless Shelter, will create a small village of 8 tiny homes for veterans.

Organizers hope to complete the first phase by the end of the year, with the vision that Honor Homes at Patty’s Place could eventually serve as a model for other Nebraska communities looking for ways to support veterans facing housing instability.

Projects like this are a great example of neighbors, organizations and community partners coming together to address local needs and create lasting change. 💙

As combines head into the fields and another harvest season begins, many Nebraska farm and ranch families are thinking about the year ahead - including what to do with the fruits of their hard work.

For some agricultural families, giving a gift of grain or livestock can be a meaningful way to support local organizations and causes while potentially offering tax benefits.

Mid Nebraska Community Foundation can work alongside your accountant, attorney, or financial advisor to help you explore charitable giving strategies such as Donor Advised Funds that potentially provide tax benefits today with flexibility in making your donations.
