The Brookwood Community

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Amegy Bank and their People with disAbilities Business Resource Group for their outstanding contributions during our recent Volunteer Day, held in honor of International People with Disabilities Day. Your team’s enthusiasm, dedication, and willingness to step in wherever needed made a profound impact on Brookwood Citizens and the broader Brookwood Community. From working alongside Citizens in the greenhouse to assisting with packaging and production, your efforts showcased the incredible value of corporate partnerships in supporting our mission. Days like this not only strengthen the connection between our organizations but also highlight the shared commitment to creating opportunities and fostering inclusion for adults with disabilities. To Amegy Bank and all who contribute their time and talents to Brookwood, thank you for partnering with us to change the way the world thinks about adults with disabilities.

This August marked a momentous occasion at The Brookwood Community as we celebrated both our future and our rich legacy. On August 23, we held a deeply meaningful assembly where leadership was symbolically passed to our next generation. Community Life Director Greggie Glauser guided a moving ceremony as the Brookwood baton was passed from God’s Chair to our Founder, Yvonne Streit, to former CEO Vivian Shudde, and then to our new CEO, Greg Hubert, who was sworn in by Citizen Chief Justice Bill Overstreet. Greg energized the room by high-fiving Citizens, signaling excitement for Brookwood’s future. We also honored four incredible Brookwood Citizens—Karen Ghormley, Chad Roberts, Kurt Larson, and Vicki Streit—each of whom celebrated 40 years of dedicated work in our community. From horticulture to tree farming, their contributions have shaped Brookwood’s past and continue to inspire us. As we step into this exciting new chapter under Greg's leadership, we remain deeply grateful for the journey that brought us here. Here's to building an even brighter future together! https://conta.cc/4dWkAv6

We are thrilled to announce a generous gift from Glesby Marks, a leading fleet leasing company. Thanks to owner Gary Glesby and his dedicated team, The Brookwood Community has received a custom-designed Ford Super Duty F-250 truck to support our Maintenance Department. This contribution ensures the safety and upkeep of our campus, directly benefiting our Citizens. The journey to this donation began at the Brookwood Benefit Lunch in April, where Steve Stephens of Amegy Bank introduced Glesby Marks to our mission. Inspired by our work, they chose Brookwood for their annual vehicle donation. We are deeply grateful to Amegy Bank for continuously introducing new supporters to Brookwood and helping us forge meaningful connections. The generosity of Glesby Marks exemplifies how collaborative efforts can make a significant difference in changing the way the world thinks about adults with disabilities. On August 1, CEO/President Emily Rauch Stoller handed the keys to our Maintenance Department. Our Horticulture Citizens welcomed the Glesby Marks team with signs, pom-poms, and chants of "Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!" They toured our campus, met Citizens, and enjoyed a meal at The Brookwood Cafe.
