Cory Adrian Strathman- Founder
"One Person, One Life"
From a young, successful principal at the age of 28 to an unemployed 34 year old, Cory Adrian Strathman has experienced it all. He is now determined to bring attention on how to handle life's challenges after his came halting to a stop in January 2019. Cory is a son, husband, father of 2 boys, but most of all he was lost. Depression led to alcohol abuse, a DUI, resignation from a prominent job, and deep soul searching. Cory decided it was time to surrender to God. With a multi-tiered plan of supports, he has now found a clear path to redemption. Cory said if his words reach even just one person, then his time is well spent. He reminds us that you are not alone. Cory states he will break down the social stigmas in life and encourage everyone to speak up. Through his actions, people will see asking for help is not a weakness, but the biggest strength of all!
At the start of 2020 Cory's family stayed true to their commitment to follow their trust in God, and took on a new challenge by relocating to Basking Ridge, New Jersey. Leaving all family and friends behind they attempted to establish a new home in New Jersey when the Covid-19 pandemic struck only 3 months later. Through all adversity, God's path presented the opportunity of remote work for his wife, Lauren, and in August 2021 their 18-month stint on the East Coast was over and his family settled back home in Kansas City. No matter the location, Cory continues to publicly speak up about his story as he establishes himself as a motivational speaker and advocate for GIYC in the Kansas City Metro area and beyond!

I am the mother of three grown children who have blessed me with two amazing daughter-in-laws, a son-in-law and seven grandchildren. I have lived my entire life in Nemaha County; first on the Reinecke family farm by Baileyville,KS where I grew up with three brothers and two sisters. After graduating from B and B High School I married my high school sweetheart ( and classmate). We live and raised our three children on the Strathman family farm north of St. Benedict, KS (AKA Whispering Pines)and will be celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary this summer. I have a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education, Masters in Special Education, and an Educational Specialist degree in school psychology. I taught at Bern School in Bern,KS for over 20 years where I had the privilege of teaching my own three children,daughter-in-law, relatives, and neighbors. I am currently working as a school psychologist and am very excited to be part of the GIYC mission. Even with nearly 40 years of experience and training in education I have learned that when working with people it all comes down to relationships and teamwork which aligns perfectly with GIYC. Together we can make a difference one life at a time.

I have a wife of 40 years, three children and seven grandchildren. I live on the family farm where I grew up as a kid, where we raise cattle and do some grain farming as well. I have been involved in the petfood industry for most of my life and will continue to do so until I retire. My involvement in the community past and present includes coaching my kids in summer, baseball, softball and basketball, serving on the school booster club, our church council, finance council, and local hospital board. I enjoy our annual family vacations, vacationing with friends, sitting on our deck and taking in the great view, fishing and giving rides to my grandchildren on the tractor, 4-wheeler and Ranger. I am a big fan of sports and my favorite teams are the K-State Wildcats, Kansas City Royals and Kansas City Chiefs. I was fortunate enough to attend a World Series Game in Kansas City.
