Congratulation to Patrick Edinborough! Patrick is a board member of IDFAPA. He is an incredible man with a big heart and a genuine commitment to serving others. He is always one of the first to step forward when there is work to be done, and his dedication to his community is evident in everything he does, especially when it comes to caring for the children in it.

Our communities are stronger because of people like Patrick who lead with their hearts and make a difference through their actions.

Congratulations, Patrick, on this well-deserved recognition!

I am so blessed to be a part of such an amazing credit union. Our all staff meeting was a memorable one today for sure, I could not do the things I do without the amazing people and leaders we have! Thank you all so much!

From being a foster parent herself to creating The Village in Blackfoot, Jacque Burt has dedicated her life to serving children and families in the foster care. Jacque and The Village support over 125 children a month, helping ease trauma, build self-esteem, and feel loved and cared for. I am proud to recognize Jacque as an October Idaho Service Spotlight recipient for her tremendous service to Idaho’s foster families.

It was a privilege to attend the AgWest Regional Conference in Couer d'Lane and participate on a panel discussing the meaningful impact AgWest has made in the lives of children and families in foster care in Idaho.

We were grateful for the opportunity to share firsthand stories from The Village and to illustrate how AgWest’s investment is translating into real support, dignity, and opportunity for children in foster care. Being able to connect the generosity of their members and organization directly to the lives of children was especially meaningful.

A sincere thank you to the AgWest Blackfoot team—Derek, Amy, and the entire LAC committee—for believing in our mission and nominating The Village for this incredible grant. We recognize the time and effort that went into advocating for our organization, and we are deeply grateful to everyone who placed their trust in us and in the work we are doing.

We were honored by the warm welcome and hospitality extended to us throughout the conference. More importantly, we left with an even greater appreciation for what is possible when businesses, community organizations, and individuals come together around a shared commitment to strengthening our communities.

We look forward to continuing to build a meaningful, long-term partnership with AgWest and its members. Thank you for investing in Idaho’s children and for helping us ensure that children in foster care know they are valued, supported, and cared for. AgWest Farm Credit
