From Kate:

It is with great pleasure that I update everyone on the amazing result of the Buck for Kids program offered by Dutch. Bros. Coffee this past Friday.

With the help of patrons like you, Dutch Bros. raised $4,085 for Getty Owl Foundation!!!!!

We cannot thank you enough. We are so thankful for the support! This helps us continue to help families affected by Spinal Muscular Atrophy. 

Dutch Bros.’s Buck for Kids, Tomorrow (Friday 4th)

From Kate,

I cannot begin to articulate how incredible Dutch Bros. has been to Getty Owl Foundation. Franchised owners, the Grubb Family has taken it upon themselves to host Buck for Kids for the past two years with a dollar from every drink to be donated to Getty Owl Foundation. We cannot thank them enough and we are also very aware of how much they do for our city’s community. They support schools, they support families that have lost loved ones in the line of duty, they support children with cancer, and the list goes on. Their hearts are always in the right place, a place of love and kindness.

Tomorrow, Friday the 4th at these three locations:

5289 Auburn Blvd Sacramento 95841
7445 Madison Ave Citrus Heights, 95610
8552 Madison Ave. Fair Oaks, 95628

Buy a drink to help support our fight against Spinal Muscular Atrophy, the #1 genetic killer of young children. Thank you to the Grubb family, thank you to Dutch Bros., thank you to everyone that stops by and buys a drink. While you are at it, please tell those amazing employees at Dutch Bros. that they are making a difference.

The Things That Count

The Things That Count

Count your garden by the flowers,
never by the leaves that fall.
Count your days by garden hours,
don’t remember clouds at all.

Count your nights by stars, not shadows.
Count your years with smiles, not tears.
Count your blessing, not your troubles.
Count your age by friends, not by years.

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours.

Happy Halloween!

From Kate:

We hope everyone has a terrific Halloween this weekend. Stay safe and if you need any protection from ghosts and ghouls, know that Super Getty will be out and about keeping everyone safe. 🙂

Age Isn’t Just a Number

From Mark:

Hey Kate… Happy birthday!

You know what they say… Age is just a number; but once again, you have disproven what “they” say.

“They” said, “Getty has 2 years.” Thanks to your boundless love and and dedication, it’s been 5 years and counting, and she is doing wonderfully.

In this case, age isn’t “just a number.” It’s a big deal. You helped make it a big deal when you decided years ago to do everything you could to defy the odds for her.
In Getty’s case, numbers aren’t just numbers. They are an integral part of her life.

The numbers on her pulse ox show she is in good health. The numbers that go into her bipap settings, cough settings, nutrition, feed rate, temperature, and supply shipments are crucial to her well being, and you have mastered them. The numbers she says aloud in her school work are evidence that you are bringing her worlds of enlightenment and  enrichment daily.

Numbers mean a lot. They are her signposts, which stand as constant reminders of all the good and happiness you deliver her every day.

I’m proud of you. I’m sure I speak for both Getty and me when I say thank you.

Happy birthday!
