A New Way to Support the Oddfellow Manor

Every big dream begins with small, faithful steps — and today, we’re celebrating one of those steps for the Oddfellow Manor.

We’ve officially integrated Zeffy into our website as our fundraising platform! 🎉 What makes Zeffy so special is that it’s completely fee-free, meaning every single dollar you give goes directly toward bringing the Manor back to life. No hidden costs, no middlemen — just generosity flowing straight into this historic home and the community it will serve.

For us, this isn’t just about raising funds. It’s about opening the door for friends, neighbors, and folks near and far to become part of the Manor’s unfolding story. Every gift is a hand on the railing, a brick in the wall, a seed in the orchard — tangible help that moves us closer to preserving this beautiful old building and re-imagining it as a place for history, homesteading, and hands-on learning.

And we absolutely could not have gotten here without the steady guidance of Mike Bell, our nonprofit guru and cheerleader through all the legal twists and turns of setting up this dream. Mike, your wisdom and encouragement have been a lighthouse for us — thank you for walking with us every step of the way.

So, here’s the invitation: if you’d like to be part of this journey, check out our brand-new Zeffy page, linked right on our website. It’s simple, secure, and most importantly, every dollar you give goes directly to the work at hand.

Together, we’re writing the next chapter of the Oddfellow Manor. Thank you for believing in this vision and for helping us bring it to life.
