What’s New

The Larrabee Center is honored and humbled to have received the Distinguished Non-Profit Award for 2022 at the Waverly Chamber Of Commerce Annual Awards Celebration last week. The award was presented by Friends of the Family‘s Ben Brustkern, a colleague and friend of our agency. We accept this award on behalf of the dedicated staff who serve our clients and community daily, focused on our mission and helping to create a community of inclusion for all. We are grateful to the Waverly community for embracing individuals of all abilities and supporting our mission. We know many people recognize our Trinkets & Togs Thrift Store and tend to not know the connection to our agency and mission. We are sometimes referred to as Waverly’s best kept secret. However, this recognition reminds us of the impact we have in the community and is greatly appreciated. Special thank you to Travis and his team at the Chamber as well as the Chamber Board of Directors and nomination selection committee. Accepting the award is Bonnie Gesell, Executive Director, with over 27 years of dedication to our mission. Also pictured, Associate Director Jessica Gulick and Darleen Lindahl, Waverly Retail Manager.
