Dynasty Serves

Since its inception, the Dynasty Volleyball Club has been committed to a philosophy of "training the whole person." We feel strongly that it is vital to teach our girls to give back to our community through service. Each season, every team and player in the club performs at least 8 hours of service through a team service project. This page is dedicated to recognizing their efforts.

17 Black Donates Time to Farmer's House Market

  

17 Black girls volunteered at The Farmer’s House Market by cutting rose bushes, package pies for the Thanksgiving Holiday, and making specialty sacks for their merchandise.

The mission of the Farmer’s House Market is to provide a community-integrated hands-on work environment that will provide youth and adults with developmental disabilities practical vocational skills. These skills will be learned by operating a cash register, making change, stocking shelves, interacting with customers, planning, tending and harvesting the market garden, and so much more! In 2006 a group of parents gathered to discuss their hopes and dreams for their children with developmental disabilities. Like most parents their biggest request was that their children’s future include a safe environment for their individual needs and a fulfilling and valued lifestyle. Out of these dreams The Farmer’s House, Inc., a not for profit 501(c)(3), was born. The idea of a working farm where children, youth and young adults could live, work, play and grow took shape and the process of learning as much as possible about existing farm or ranch communities for individuals with developmental disabilities was undertaken.
