Volunteer of the week

Volunteer of the Week

This week’s Volunteer of the Week honor goes out to  Jodi Stuber.

Jodi Stuber is co-founder and director of HopeWell Ranch. HopeWell Ranch is a non-profit organization that desires, through the use of rescued horses to reach out to children and people who may have emotional, spiritual, physical and social needs. The ranch serves children from age 5 to adults, by pairing an individual with a caring staff member and an equine counselor so their time is just their own. HopeWell Ranch also serves the entire family. Many siblings have joined the program and parents receive support through the Parents Supporting Parents Group that meets monthly to discuss topics unique to their family's situation.

Volunteer opportunities are plentiful at HopeWell Ranch. There is a Junior Volunteer Program for ages 12-18 as well as an Adult Volunteer program. The ranch also offers internship opportunities for CMU students in all aspects of work performed at the ranch.

HopeWell Ranch has the Cowboy Ball coming up on October 2, 2010. It is a fundraiser which includes dinner, an auction and dancing. All proceeds will go to support the ranch.

Jodi Stuber, we thank you for your dedication to our community. Congratulations on being Volunteer of the Week! > read more
