Next time your gas gauge is running low or you need a morning coffee pick-me-up, make sure to pull into the J&H Family Store at 44th and Clyde Park! ⛽️☕️✨

Why? Because you’ll get to experience the incredible hard work of our very own Bobby DeVries!

Rain, snow, sleet, or sunshine—you can count on Bobby riding in on his motorized bike every single weekday morning, ready to give it his all. 🚲🌧️☀️

If you’ve ever stepped inside this store and noticed how spotless and beautifully organized it is, you are seeing Bobby’s dedication in action. From making the coffee counters and bathrooms sparkle to ensuring the outside parking lot is completely litter-free, Bobby takes massive pride in his work. 🧼✨

It has been 6.5 years since Bobby was first connected with this job through Beyond26! Over more than six years later, he is still making a distinct, daily difference for the team and the customers at J&H Family Stores. Long-term, meaningful workplace independence is exactly what we champion, and Bobby is the perfect example of it. 💼💪

👉 Next time you stop by 44th and Clyde Park, be sure to say hi to Bobby and thank him for keeping the store looking so great! Leave some love and congratulations for him in the comments below! 👇❤️

Small change makes a BIG impact! 🪙✨

We want to extend a massive, heartfelt THANK YOU to our incredible friends at Russ' Restaurants ! Through their wonderful "Spare Change Program," their staff and amazing customers came together to raise an astounding $1,870 for Beyond26!

Every single dime, nickel, and quarter dropped into those buckets adds up to real, tangible support for our jobseekers.!

To the team at Russ's and to everyone who donated their spare change the next time they grabbed a meal—thank you for believing in our mission and helping us champion workplace independence. We are so incredibly grateful for your partnership! 🪵🍔🙏
