Erv Geisler and Jeff Preston’s combined service to Farm Rescue spans nearly a quarter century. Through their dedication, hard work, and leadership, these volunteers have helped grow the organization’s impact in rural communities, as well as its base of supporters. They have touched the lives of many farm families throughout Farm Rescue’s 20-year history and inspired other volunteers to follow in their footsteps.
The Good Samaritan Award was created in 2016 to honor individuals who support Farm Rescue with the compassionate heart of the Good Samaritan. That support may include a generous contribution to further the mission of the organization, serving as an ambassador for the nonprofit, or going above and beyond as an Angel in Blue volunteer to help farm families in crisis.
This video highlights a small cross section of their incredible work, with interviews from years past. Thank you, Erv and Jeff, for your service to Farm Rescue and for showing us all what it means to be a Good Samaritan!
