Join me, Laura Muirhead, on this episode of A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To My Life® as I sit down with the amazing Tammy Carey. We dive into Tammy's journey to becoming the CEO of the Community Foundation for Oceana County. Get ready for insights on the foundation's growth and the powerful ripple effect of giving, especially in our local communities. It's a conversation you won't want to miss!

Tammy is a long time resident of Oceana County, living in Shelby with her husband Sean.  Their pride shines through as parents of three Michigan Technological University and one University of Michigan graduates. But that's not all – the Careys modestly contribute to the local tourism and agriculture scenes by managing a 15-acre Christmas tree farm and two summer rental cottages at Silver Lake. Their shared deep appreciation for Oceana County, from its scenic countryside to recreational opportunities and historic roots dating back three generations in Sean's family, adds another layer to the fascinating tapestry of this episode.
