HOPE TO DREAM (Greene County): 56 BEDS, 56 CHILDREN, AND 56 NEW OPPORTUNITIES TO DREAM BIG! 🧸✨

We are so grateful to share the impact of our Hope to Dream in Greene County! Thanks to the incredible generosity and support of our community partners, 56 children will have a bed of their very own providing them with a safe, comfortable place to rest, grow, and dream of a brighter future. 💙

A good night's sleep can make all the difference in a child's life, and we are proud to partner with organizations that believe every child deserves that opportunity.
A HUGE thank-you to our amazing partners who helped make this possible: Be Hope Church, Riverside Research, SRC, CareSource, IH Credit Union, Morris Home Furniture, Fairborn FISH, Jamie's Tire & Service, and all of our amazing volunteers!

Your generosity and commitment to our community are helping make a meaningful difference in the lives of local children and families.

Together, we are doing more than providing beds—we are providing comfort, hope, and the foundation for brighter tomorrows. Thank you for helping us make dreams come true right here in Greene County! 💙🧸

Celebrating a Legacy of Leadership and Community Connection: Congratulations to Terry Graves-Strieter!

Join us in wishing a massive, heartfelt CONGRATULATIONS to Terry Graves-Strieter on her well-deserved retirement as Superintendent of the Greene County ESC!

After 30 amazing years with the ESC (and 11 years running the show as Superintendent!), Terry is officially trading in her school calendar for a wide-open schedule of fun, family, and continued community impact.

Terry has spent decades putting local kids first knowing that for a student to succeed in the classroom, they need a strong foundation at home. Terry connected the dots—using her role at the United Way to answer the unmet needs of families at the Greene County ESC, ensuring no child or parent fell through the cracks.

We are so proud to celebrate your incredible community milestones:
Superintendent at Greene County ESC
Vice Chair for the United Way of the Greater Dayton Area (Greene County Branch)
United Way Volunteer of the Year for Greene County 2021!

The best part about her next chapter? It is just a major promotion to "Full-Time Change Maker!" We are thrilled that Terry will continue her vital volunteer work and advocacy with the United Way of the Greater Dayton Area, keeping that essential loop of community care stronger than ever.

Thank you, Terry, for your decades of unwavering service, your endless energy, and for making Greene County a brighter, better place for everyone. You have more than earned the right to turn off the early alarms and enjoy some much-deserved later mornings! Enjoy every single moment of your hard-earned freedom—you have truly earned it!
