HRDC

Give a Hoot is coming up and we need your support!

All July long, Give a Hoot raises money for Park County nonprofits doing real work in their community, and HRDC is participating again this year!

One of our most critical programs in Park County is the Livingston Warming Center — a lifeline for our most vulnerable neighbors when temperatures drop and they need a warm place to go. It's one of the many ways our team shows up for Park County with food, housing, transportation, and opportunity every single day.

Last year, Give a Hoot raised over $3.2 million for 91 Montana nonprofits. Imagine what we can do together this year. 💛

We love seeing Produce Rx in action! Last week, Matt, one of our Produce Rx participants, shared a recipe for homemade chicken tacos topped with fresh ingredients from his weekly produce box.

Produce Rx connects participants with consistent access to fresh, nutritious food while providing education and support to build healthy habits at home.

This program is truly a community effort. A huge thank you to our partners at Bozeman Health for helping design and support this program, including the healthcare providers who connect patients to this resource.

We are also grateful for the registered dietitians who share their expertise through nutrition classes and Christina at Root Cellar Foods for helping us source beautiful, locally grown produce for participants each week.

Last week was Teacher Appreciation Week — and we're still thinking about ours. 💛

To every teacher across our Head Start program: thank you. What you do goes far beyond lesson plans and circle time. You are often the first trusted adult outside of home that a child truly knows. You show up — every single day — for the youngest, most impressionable hearts in our community.

The research is clear: the earliest years of a child's life are the most formative. 🌱
