Father Carr's and Lourde's Academy spotlighted on recent Eye on Oshkosh

In this edition of Eye on Oshkosh, host Cheryl Hentz spends most of the hour talking with Jim Boehm, the new executive director of Father Carr's Place to Be. He shares with the audience how he first came to Father Carr's as a volunteer and how his first night there as a volunteer - quite literally - changed his life. He also talks about the many things Father Carr’s offers to people in need within the community. You’ll learn, too, how people can get involved with Father Carr’s, especially as the holidays draw near.

In the latter part of the show, Karen Boehm (Jim’s wife) talks about the recent addition and renovations to Lourde’s Academy and the role she played in the capital campaign and their raising $10 million (including initial "seed" money, if you will of $1.5 million) between December 30, 2020 and the time they opened their doors on August 23, 2022 for the 2022-2023 academic year. This couple is clearly committed to their community and give of themselves whenever and wherever possible. You can see the show here or by following this link: https://youtu.be/XAATu4VTMyI
