As we look at the warm days of summer I am always impressed by how things grow. Being a lifelong farmer I have had the opportunity to see growth season after season. Some are too hot or too wet, but life does increase and it is always a marvel to behold.

As we grow the support and the work of the Center for Rural Affairs we see a corresponding abundance. We are in a tough time; the economy is in a bad place and uncertainly is strong. Even so, Center supporters have helped our work and our support grow. Not as much as we would like, but we are growing.

Your support is needed for us to continue to do what we do. You know that. We are thankful of what you do and ask that you do more so we can do more.

For ideas on how you can help the Center keep growing, please contact Matt Connealy at mattc@cfra.org or 402.687.2103 x 1009.
