RIVERSIDE, Calif., Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A local couple has donated almost five acres with a 6,300-square-foot home and a flourishing botanical garden to California Baptist University.

The property, located just blocks from CBU, includes a house, barn, pool and pickleball/tennis court. The donation from Frank and Lucy Heyming represents a $5.3 million gift to the university.

“A lot of the top universities have their own botanical garden, and we knew that CBU didn’t. It just made sense with CBU being so close,” Frank Heyming said.

When the Heymings bought the property in 1995, it featured eucalyptus and palm trees, but not much else. The following year, they replanted the dead orchard with more than 80 citrus and stone fruit trees. Over time, their vision expanded. When Frank wanted to install a fountain in front of the house, friends offered landscaping suggestions. In 2004, the Heymings became master gardeners and also drew inspiration from their travels. Today, the Grand Arbor garden features themed areas including cactus, succulent, rose, butterfly and zones representing the four seasons. They also built a stream, a Zen garden and a vegetable garden.

Over the years, the couple has allowed charitable organizations to hold events in the barn and on the property.

“Frank and Lucy’s philanthropic spirit shines through everything they do,” said Dr. Ronald L. Ellis, president of CBU. “Their generosity and unwavering commitment to Riverside reflect a deep-rooted spirit of philanthropy that inspires us all. We are profoundly grateful for their support.”

The house itself has a rich history. Built in 1916 by Alvin Untermyer, a lawyer and polo player, it originally sat on 27 acres. In 1929, Earle and Vida Halliburton bought the property and expanded the house to accommodate their five children. Over the years, the property changed hands several times, with rooms rented out and the house even serving as a nursing home.

The botanical garden, consisting of 345 trees of 151 varieties, also showcases some of Frank’s sculptures. A former real estate broker, he began sculpting after he retired in 2012. He donated one piece to CBU in 2018; “Inspiration” is located between the Wallace Theatre and the Alumni Dining Commons.

“The garden is a labor of love. We enjoyed doing it,” Frank Heyming said. “It was fun because it was something we designed piece by piece. And that was part of our motivation in giving it to CBU. We wanted to see the botanical garden remain for the community.”

The couple made pathways through the garden’s various areas and allowed their neighbors and friends to walk through.

“People say it’s so peaceful,” Lucy Heyming said. “I feel like that is a godly thing for people to have. People need peace. People need to be near nature.”

Additionally, the couple sold two properties to CBU at below market value. CBU later sold one, generating $400,000 as an endowment gift, which CBU matched. The Heymings then contributed more gifts, which CBU also matched. These gifts and the CBU match have created a $1.2 million endowment to support the garden.

CBU is still deciding how to best use the property, but one thing is certain – the garden will be around for generations, and the rest of the property will ultimately be used to further the mission of CBU.

“Frank and Lucy’s generosity speaks volumes about their character and love for this community,” said Paul Eldridge, vice president for University Advancement. “They’re remarkable individuals and pillars of Riverside, and their impact will be felt for generations.”

Frank worked in real estate and property management for 40 years and is well known throughout the greater Riverside area. A sculptor, artist and philanthropist, he is known for donating his sculptures to local institutions, including CBU and the University of California Riverside Botanic Gardens. Both Frank and Lucy are UCR alums. Frank has been active with local organizations including the Rotary Club of Riverside, Victoria Avenue Forever, Rivers and Lands Conservancy and the Chamber of Commerce Military Affairs Committee. Lucy is a Master Gardener and artist in her own right. The couple has six children and 14 grandchildren.

Fueling Animals, Fueling Hope

KIMBERLY, Idaho, Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — For millions of people and families, breast cancer is a fight that touches every part of life. This October, Standlee Premium Western Forage^® is proud to launch its 5th annual breast cancer awareness initiative: Grab & Go^® to Give, a campaign rooted in community, hope, and action. For the first time ever, Standlee’s iconic green Grab & Go bales are turning pink. This is not just a color change, but a symbol of solidarity with those impacted by breast cancer.

The pink bales, featuring limited-edition packaging, have been distributed to retailers across the country, spreading awareness from coast to coast. When you choose a pink Grab & Go bale, you’re not only fueling your animals with the same high-quality forage you’ve always trusted – you’re also fueling the fight against breast cancer.

“Supporting the fight against breast cancer has long been part of who we are at Standlee,” said Jessica Wright, VP of Marketing. “Each year, we are reminded that this battle affects the people standing right beside us, in our own barns, homes, and communities. These pink bales are a reminder that together, we can fight for a future without breast cancer.”

This year’s milestone marks five consecutive years of Standlee’s commitment to the cause. Previous campaigns have spotlighted personal stories of resilience and inspired the equine community nationwide to join in the fight against breast cancer.

Funds from this year’s campaign will support the following organizations:

• Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) – Funding innovative research to prevent and cure breast cancer worldwide.
• Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC) – Providing education, resources, and a supportive community for people affected by breast cancer.
• Riding Beyond – Offering equine-assisted programs that promote healing and empowerment for women facing cancer.
• Rural Gone Urban Foundation – Providing judgment-free grants and financial support to women battling breast cancer, empowering them to make memories and invest in legacies for themselves and their families.
• Horses and Hope – Supporting medically underserved individuals, especially those in the Kentucky horse industry and beyond, through education, screening, and support to help with early detection and care.

Join the movement: every pink Grab & Go bale purchased helps support these organizations and the people they serve. Together, we can stand stronger in the fight to wrap up breast cancer, one bale at a time.

BRIARCLIFF MANOR, N.Y., Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On Monday, September 15, 2025, the Community-Police Relations Foundation (CPR Foundation), in partnership with Broadstreet Global as the Presenting Sponsor, hosted its Second Annual Charity Golf Tournament at Trump National Golf Club Westchester, bringing together community leaders, law enforcement, business executives, and philanthropists in a powerful show of solidarity and support for safer and more unified communities. 

Now in its second year, the event reflects the continued vision of Founder and CEO Al Eskanazy, to strengthen ties between police and the community. Over 160 participants teed off for the cause, enjoying an 18-hole tournament with dynamic on-course activations, friendly competitions, and interactive contests designed to support initiatives that improve relations between law enforcement and the communities they serve. Guests were also treated to a gourmet lunch, followed by a cocktail reception and dinner featuring networking, an awards ceremony, and both live and silent auctions. 

A highlight during the dinner was the recognition of three distinguished public servants whose work embodies the spirit of community service. Mount Vernon Police Chief Marcel Olifiers and NYPD Chaplain Frank Chiaramonte were each presented with a commemorative watch to honor their unwavering dedication to the community. Their leadership and commitment to bridging divides were celebrated with heartfelt applause. Mount Vernon Mayor Shawyn Patterson-Howard was also recognized for her steadfast support of law enforcement and community engagement. In her remarks, the Mayor spoke about the impact the CPR Foundation is making in her community, emphasizing the importance of continued collaboration between civic leaders and community-driven organizations.

“When officers and community leaders share the same fairway, it creates an impact that transcends a single event,” said Glenn Hechler, Vice President of the Board for the CPR Foundation. “This Tournament showcased the power of our Foundation’s work and its ability to bring people together in an exciting, yet meaningful way.” 

Proceeds from the event will support the CPR Foundation’s outreach efforts, initiatives, and programs including law enforcement-led youth athletics and mentorship, back-to-school and food distribution events for families in need, and mental health support for officers. These activities are part of the Foundation’s broader mission to foster a stronger connection between law enforcement and the communities they serve by facilitating positive interactions that build unity, trust, and understanding. 

“Events like this Tournament demonstrate the real impact the CPR Foundation creates by giving community members the opportunity to build genuine relationships for a common cause,” said Joseph Baldassarra, President of Broadstreet Global. “Broadstreet Global is proud to support an organization that understands how these connections translate into safer, stronger, and more unified communities.”

The nonprofit organizations are transitioning from emergency response to long-term solutions as reduced government funding becomes the new reality

SEATTLE, Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Life You Can Save, a nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting extreme poverty, and Founders Pledge, a global nonprofit empowering entrepreneurs to do the most possible good with their charitable giving, partnered to form the Rapid Response Fund when life-threatening foreign aid cuts were made earlier this year. Since launching the Fund on Feb. 17, 2025, the organizations have raised more than $13.1 million for high-impact, evidence-based charities addressing urgent health and global development needs.

While the Rapid Response Fund accepted its final donations on August 31, both organizations will continue raising money, but will transition funding strategies from emergency response to managing and monitoring the long-term effects of reduced government funding. The final grants raised from the Rapid Response Fund will be distributed by early October. In total, the fund awarded 13 grants to 11 partner charities and non-profit organizations, projected to save the lives of more than 4,700 children.

Additionally, the Rapid Response Fund’s partnership with Project Resource Optimization (PRO) introduced a joint funding initiative that raised $7.5M in donations and commitments.

“The Rapid Response Fund emphasized the importance of pairing evidence-based philanthropy with the ability to act quickly in moments of urgent need,” said Jessica La Mesa, Co-CEO of The Life You Can Save. “As we look to the future, we see an opportunity to build on this approach by advancing models of giving that are both highly effective and adaptable to global challenges. Our goal is to continue demonstrating how strategic philanthropy can maximize impact, transform lives and strengthen resilience for communities most in need.”

Both The Life You Can Save and Founders Pledge will continue the vital work of the Fund through other fundraising initiatives that continue to draw on their long-term expertise of evaluating and selecting high-impact organizations and giving opportunities, all while incorporating the learnings from the Rapid Response Fund.

The Life You Can Save will direct funders to its Maximize Your Impact Fund, ensuring donations go to organizations across all dimensions of poverty, guaranteeing the impact is meaningful, multidimensional and creating the greatest change. Recognizing that poverty is complex and interconnected, the fund invests in holistic solutions that break down barriers to well-being and advance human development. By pooling donor contributions, the Maximize Your Impact Fund supports a diverse portfolio of high-impact charities, creating opportunities for individuals and communities to thrive.

Additionally, Founders Pledge has launched a Global Health and Development (GHD) Catalytic Impact Fund, which directs resources toward opportunities where small investments generate outsized returns. Its first grant of $1.9 million, made jointly with the Rapid Response Fund, supports the Clinton Health Access Initiative(CHAI) in ten Sub-Saharan African countries affected by USAID cuts. By adding technical expertise to Ministries of Health, each dollar spent will influence hundreds of dollars in government spending, strengthen long-term health systems, and save more lives beyond the initial grant.

“We’re humbled to be the first recipient of Founders Pledge’s Catalytic Impact Fund and energized by what this catalytic investment means for our ability to support governments around the world save lives now and reimagine the future of global health,” said Neil Buddy Shaw, the Chief Executive Officer of CHAI. “In a moment of unprecedented funding cuts, this partnership allowed us to act quickly to protect critical health services while helping governments revise their new health budgets to stretch every dollar further. It’s more than emergency relief—it’s an investment in resilient health systems that can save lives now and in the future.”

“The lesson of the Rapid Response Fund is clear: a community of motivated donors can transform concern into rapid, coordinated action,” said Katrina Sill, Global Health and Development Lead at Founders Pledge. “This next chapter is about building resilient, transformational health and development systems that don’t just respond to crises, but prevent them.”
