Meet Brad.

For the past four years, Brad and his wife Stephanie have been dedicated volunteers at our affordable housing communities. From hosting bingo and potlucks to organizing game days, they bring more than just activities. They create connection, belonging, and a true sense of community for every resident.

This Volunteer Appreciation Week, we’re proud to highlight the incredible people who make our work possible. And who better to share that impact than the volunteers themselves?

We simply couldn’t do what we do without amazing volunteers like Brad and Stephanie. Thank you for the heart you bring to our mission every single day.

We are so grateful for the continued support and partnership of Jimm's Steakhouse & Pub! Through opportunities like this upcoming giveback event, they are making a direct impact in the lives of youth in our community.

Because of partners like Jimm’s, Rare Breed is able to show up every day with resources, support, and a safe place for young people who need it most. We’re thankful to stand alongside businesses that truly care about our community and invest in its future. ❤️

The easiest gift to give… and one they’ll actually use.

Jimm’s gift cards are perfect for celebrating moms, dads, and grads. And through May, every purchase helps support Rare Breed and the Child Advocacy Center.

Good food. Good reason to give.
