World Wildlife Fund has prioritized conserving and restoring North America’s Great Plains. Olseth Family Foundation Director, Cheryl Olseth is honored to be chairing the Great Plains committee, a small, passionate group of grassland lovers from across the USA.
The committee supports WWF with their objectives to continue returning Buffalo 🦬 to native tribes, ensure the critically endangered black-footed ferret survives long in to the future, return beaver to the landscape and keep grasslands “right side up”, which will aide in abating the decline in grassland birds, sequester carbon and keep out waterways clean.
Photos below: Committee Meeting, day one.
We balance conference room discussion with time in the field, enjoying birds, bison, wild flowers and grass.
Thanks to Martha and John Kauffman for hosting dinner, literally in the prairie grass. Perfect way to end the day.

The committee is a small but mighty, passionate group of people from across the USA, dedicated to preserving the grasslands, restoring bison, black-footed ferrets (North Americas most endangered mammal), swift fox, and the many birds whose range has been lost due to human habitation. #WWF #northerngreatplains

Five local choirs provided a joyful afternoon of music in celebration of Giving Voice’s ten year anniversary.
Founders Mary Lenard and Marge Ostroushko believed the power of music could help people with Alzheimer’s and other dementias live better lives. Ten years later there are more than 50 choirs across the country and the globe. Each choir is making a positive difference for those living with Alzheimer’s, their caregivers and the communities in which they reside.
