June 11-18: A special Project Hope Pack Drive to give hope and dignity to kids

When children are removed from home due to abuse or neglect, they often leave with only the clothes on their back and whatever personal items can be hastily gathered up into a trash bag.

PBR Be Cowboy Award presented to SHARE Omaha

This past Saturday at the CHI Health Center in Omaha, SHARE Omaha and Marjorie Maas were honored to be presented with the PBR Be Cowboy Award! 

As the Professional Bull Riding, Inc Be Cowboy Award says, 
It's not the hat, the buckle, or the boots.
It's not what you ride or what you drive.
It's the values you embrace and the way you live your life.
Be Badder Be Bolder Be Braver
BE COWBOY



Thank you PBR for this honor!
