It will take a village to get where we are trying to go. And yesterday, a small village showed up for us. We want to thank Sarah Walker and Mr. Earl at the McCracken Co. Senior Center for helping us acquire 75 gently used chairs for our blackbox theater (and for a steal)!!

A huge shout out to Cathy and Joel Quimby for stepping up to help get them loaded, transported and unloaded for us!! We are one step closer every day.🌱 We are humbled and blown away by the blessings that keep showing up for BLOOM. Thank you, sweet village.
