I had such a great summer with Camp Courageous of Iowa working as a camp counselor. I learned a lot this summer about myself, the world around me, and how to serve others. I’d like to thank the organization and every person apart of it for being so supportive and being a great team to be apart of. While this chapter of my life is closed for now, I’ll never forget the memories, friends made, and lessons learned from this summer.

July is Disability Pride Month, dedicated to promoting awareness, acceptance, and empowerment of people with disabilities. Hy-Vee is proud to support our helpful smiles of all abilities, and this month more than 40 Hy-Vee locations in Eastern Iowa will sell pineapples to benefit Camp Courageous of Iowa, a year-round recreational and caregiver respite program for kids and adults with disabilities. We’re also a sponsor of the 2024 Pineapple Gala, which benefits the thousands of individuals with special needs the camp serves each year. Jimmy Gibney, a courtesy clerk in Cedar Rapids, attended the camp as a child and now helps to sponsor a child to attend every year. Jimmy, you're a true example of being a smile beyond the aisles! https://lnkd.in/g_5VbtnZ
