Sanctioned Parrot Head clubs have collectively donated or raised millions of dollars and provided hundreds of thousands of hours to club sanctioned national and local charities. But, many of our members do much outside of club activities with their own efforts and we feel they should be recognized and rewarded. 

Lone Palm Foundation is proud to support members of our Parrot Head family who do great deeds in their local community. The quarterly winners of the Home Town Hero program will be recognized nationally and Lone Palm Foundation will donate $500 in their name to the charity of their choice.

Home Town Hero, Quarter 4, 2024

The first ever winner of the Home Town Hero award is Cassi Ohman of the Lakes Area Parrot Head Club in Detroit Lakes, MN. Cassi is the manager of the Marshmallow Animal Shelter.Their mission: Improving our community by reuniting the lost and advocating for the unwanted. 

Cassi is a tireless advocate for animals of all types and helps to provide a safe environment for them while helping them to be adopted into loving homes. Cassi was presented the award at the 2024 Meeting of The Minds. She generously chose a local shelter in Gulf Shores, AL, the Baldwin County Animal Shelter, to receive the $500 donation from Lone Palm Foundation in her name.
