Bobby Koehne

Bobby, a current Marquette High School freshmen, and his family founded this organization. Back in 2015, they began painting crosses and giving them out at local soup kitchens. They worked tirelessly painting the crosses and handed as many out as the could. He hopes to continue this tradition by spreading it out into the world.
