- Extensive community space
DEDICATED TO OUR FORMER CEO
CATO HOUSE
The house has been named in honor of Hal Cato, who stepped down as CEO at the end of June. It was a fitting way to celebrate his nearly 7 years of service to the organization.
“Placing Hal's name on this home is a tangible way to celebrate the impact he has made in the lives of hundreds of women that have graced the doorsteps of Thistle Farms. He recognizes the resilience of people and lifts them up and cheers them on, so that everyone gets to be the hero of their own story. We are stronger and ready to scale to even greater heights because of Hal’s dedication and hard work.”
- Becca Stevens
