Forever Green – FG Xpress Releases Happy Valley
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
As ForeverGreen patiently waited for its time to come, we made a promise to never waver from our identity. Performing random acts of kindness, big or small, has always been at the core of our business model.
Just a few years ago, Ron Williams discovered there was an epidemic in the community in which he lived. Even though youth and young adults were dropping like flies, exceeding the number of car accident deaths, no one was talking about it. Happy Valley became not only a personal community stand for Ron, but for the entire ForeverGreen family.
He immediately enlisted the services of Craig Smith, Dan Barnett, Ally King, and Tomoko Tatematsu, and Happy Valley the movie became a passionate labor of love. Although it was funded by Ron, one hundred percent of proceeds from the film went to help people who wanted to take on their addictive behaviors.
Ron Williams, Director of Happy Valley said, “Somewhere deep in my soul, I felt that this project would not only help tens of thousands of people, but it would authentically demonstrate who we are at ForeverGreen.”
