March 2021
 National Volunteer Month
April is National Volunteer Month and an opportunity to recognize volunteers and the impact they make through their service to build stronger communities and transform our world. The Henry County Community Foundation is grateful for local citizens who are devoting their time, talent, and treasure to make a difference in Henry County. We want to recognize just a few of those who are working with us to achieve our mission to help where the needs are greatest.

Don and Betty Geozeff moved to New Castle to learn more about vocational education. Planning to stay for a few years, learn, and then move on, they wanted to buy a house with great resale value. They picked a nice house close to Riley Elementary school and within walking distance to the playground. Now, 49 years later, they’re still in that same house.

Plans changed for the Geozeffs when they fell in love with the community in Henry County. “It shows how much we care about the community that we stayed,” shared Don. They hadn’t just found a house, they found a home in Henry County. Betty echoed his sentiment, “I hope everybody realizes what a great community this is. We take care of each other. We love this community!”
