Our Inspiration

In the heart of Eastern Montana, on a farm surrounded by open fields and endless skies, Beverly Vannatta’s story began. Beverly, affectionately known as Mom and Nana, is the mother of four children and the beloved nana to nine grandchildren. Her life has been a testament to love, resilience, and unwavering faith. Raised on the values of hard work and dedication, Beverly has always been the cornerstone of her family, providing strength and guidance through every season of life. Her journey is one of inspiration, deeply rooted in the simplicity and warmth of small-town living.

Beverly’s life took a turn over 20 years ago when she lost her husband, a loss that would leave many adrift. But not Beverly. Drawing on her faith and the love of her family, she found solace in her church community, where she has been a loyal member and dedicated volunteer ever since. Her commitment to helping others has only grown with time, as she pours her heart into every act of service, embodying the true spirit of giving. One of the most cherished memories in her family is the little jingle she created called "Buckle Up For Safety." As a mother of young children, Beverly often faced the common struggle of getting her kids to buckle their seatbelts. Instead of frustration, she turned to creativity, singing a playful tune that magically transformed a moment of resistance into one of joy and cooperation. Her children would calm down, sing along, and buckle up with smiles on their faces. That simple, sweet melody became more than just a tool for safety—it became a cherished family tradition that has been passed down through generations.

Today, Beverly is filled with joy knowing that her little jingle, born out of love and the desire to protect her children, will now have the power to give back to children in need. It’s a beautiful continuation of her life’s work—using kindness, creativity, and care to make the world a better place, one small step at a time.

Beverly Vannatta is not just our inspiration; she is a beacon of love, reminding us that the simplest acts, born from the heart, can have the most profound impact.
